Adventures with housekeeping

The stay had its ups and downs. I left my nutrition stuff in the room and housekeeping tossed it without a thought, which was super frustrating. But the breakfast was actually decent, and the staff at the front desk were friendly. Just be careful with your personal items. they might end up in the trash.

We had a fantastic stay! The room was clean and modern, and the pool area was nice. However, the breakfast options were limited compared to what we expected.

The hotel is modern with a high ceiling that gives it an open feel. I loved the gluten-free bagels at breakfast. they were surprisingly delicious!

Some specifics could use improvement. The breakfast service was slow, which left some dishes unavailable, like oatmeal. I also encountered hygiene issues with serving spoons in hot trays at breakfast—could've been managed better. Additionally, my room lacked a mini-fridge, which I found surprising since I had packed food items expecting one. The mattress was on the firm side, making it hard to get a decent rest, and I had to deal with limited TV channels during thunderstorms.

I stayed here during my daughter's graduation, and there were some frustrating moments at check-in. Although the location was perfect for our needs, the initial struggle to find my reservation left a sour taste. Once settled, I appreciated the spaciousness of the accessible room and the view. Thankfully, we enjoyed a comfortable stay overall, and the close proximity to local attractions was a bonus.
