Fantastic Hotel Experience

comfortable linens excellent water additional treats
The room was a great size. The bed had comfortable linens. The shower provided excellent water pressure. Staff was lovely and remembered many details. The service for the room provided excellent amenities. The staff ensured I always got fresh water and additional treats.
The door person was absent upon my arrival. I spent a time looking around the reception area. Check-in took too long. The employee did not point out checkout time or key fob importance. I had problems getting back to my room without those details.
