The staff was cute and eager to assist (Dawn was a superstar!). My room was super clean and well-stocked with tea and coffee. I noticed the soap and shampoo even smelled amazing. Breakfast had an awesome selection, ensuring everyone finds something to enjoy. I also appreciated being allowed to check in early. I needed to change before heading to an event.
The bathroom floor tiles had a small crack.
