Arrived very early on a Fri AM (12:30am) and was immediately greeted by a clerk to check us in. The check in was prompt and we were off to our room.
Our room was spacious, with a mini-kitchen and a separate sitting area. King size bed with a bit small of a bathroom. Single tub/shower unit. Upon arrival room temp was about 75 degrees and within minutes the AC system had the room temp down to a more comfortable level. That system worked well and was not noisy.
Good sized flat screen TV pivoted to the bed or sitting area section. Free wireless in the hotel, but the signal in our room was pretty low, so internet speed was slow as well.
The bed is one area where we had a major complaint. I'll bet there was a 2" drop from the end of the bed to the center. This made sleeping a bit interesting, as you were always rolling to the center. We thought about changing rooms, but since the trip was just three nights, we left it alone. Needless to say we didn't get that good a quality sleep. No other complaints on the room. Kitchen has coffee maker and coffee, along with a bag of popcorn.
Housekeeping did a good job and have no complaints. One day they cleaned by the time we returned from breakfast. Can't complaint about that. Good desk to work from as well if you need to pop open the laptop.
Breakfast...simply outstanding. It's free and it's awesome. Fruit, cereal, hot items and lots of juice and coffee. We left every morning having enjoyed a great meal. TV is on and there are newspapers for your enjoyment. Food was always stocked and taste was excellent.
I paid $119 a night for this room and I was very pleased, with the exception of the bed. There is a pool, hot tub, tennis courts, fire pit, and other amenities for your enjoyment.
Overall, with the exception of a sorry bed, the rest of the stay was outstanding. I probably should have asked for a different room, but when you stroll in at 12:15 in the AM, this is the last thing you want to deal with.
