Check in was not a welcoming experience and the staff member struggled to look at me or provide me with clear information about my stay or parking. I felt like an inconvenience when I arrived. Fortunately staff at the restaurants were kind and more than happy to help and made our evening drinks and breakfast the next morning enjoyable.
