I arrived around 3pm, one hour before check in time. The drive way to the front desk was blocked by two cars. T 3 employees was in the parking area. They can not help. They told me to ask the other driver to move so I can drive through to the guest parking area. Very strange! And then I found out check in start at 4:00pm. No room was available. Not even if I pay to upgrade my room. But I need to get ready for a wedding. The front desk staff was helpful, He let me use the gym bathroom to shower and change. By 4:00pm. check-in line was long. I did not receive any room ready message or call. I left my luggage to the bell man. He was very professional and polite. At late night, to pick up the room key was no problem. But no mention of any Expedia VIP benefits. I left before 4:00 am, check out experience was normal. Room was good size and clean. Comes with full kitchen. May be great for family gatherings. I had been with many Hyatt properties. Always great. Perhaps the rest assured impression, I was disappointed for this stay.

Covid
I contacted hotels.com on three occasions. They said they were assisting me to get my reservation changed. That's all. I just wanted to change the date because I shared with them. I had covid and felt it was not safe for me to come. I called the hotel because hotels.com told me that the hotel refused to change the date. The hotel said that they never heard from hotels.com. so someone dropped the ball be at hotels.com or the hotel. I felt it was very unfair if it was the hotel after me speaking to him and asking to just change the date that they refuse to do it. They said I didn't check a security amount to to hold my reservation and case of illness or something like that. So to say that I will stay there again. No I wouldn't give them a penny of my money that they couldn't extend themselves just a little.

I would definitely come back, my only complaint is their check out is at 10am. I do wish check out was atleast 11am.
