Hotel was nice overall. Our room was spacious and clean. Valet service was slow upon arrival, but friendly service once they appeared. Not necessarily the hotel’s fault, but loud talking neighbors at night did detract from stay.

Dad/daughter road trip stop

This hotel is wonderful. Staff was amazing and went out of their way to help us with restaurants, beverages and transportation to the restaurant via golf cart on a rainy evening. I would give it six stars. Only downside was pillows are a bit poofy so if you like a flatter pillow then bring your own.
