It was as good as any other nice hotel. Not what I expected for the cost.

Liked: The bar.
Disliked: The cost for the room with no working coffee pot, no restaurant, minimal food choices to eat at the bar. No cups in the room. No glasses to put water.

Good

Liked: Didnt really stay in the room . Only slept there
Disliked: We didnt know that we had to pay for parking and my daughter had the same issue. We missed that while booking our hotel rooms. We ended up spending another $130 dollars for two rooms just to leave the car at night. We will not stay again. It was a little noisy too at night.
