The rooms were modern, clean and spacious. Beds were comfortable. Breakfast was delicious—lots of choices of hot food and continental-style food. The staff was super friendly and helpful. Only bad part was I was given a handicap room which I didn’t want because there’s hardly any vanity counter space in a handicap bathroom. I changed rooms the next day and it was great.
