We liked this hotel for a 4th of July getaway! However, the beds were hard and the rooms on the smaller side. Also a little too modern for my liking. However, location is great, lobby and bar were very nice! Brendan at the bar was awesome!

Wonderful breakfast but not complementary. I wish somebody would’ve told me it was 18.99 a person before just eating apple and a yogurt. Everything they had out was amazing and the menu looked great, but I thought what was available in the room was part of the expense of staying at the hotel. The food was very fresh and delightful.

I booked a Deluxe Room, 1 King Bed with Sofa bed, City View. When I checked-in, I was given a 2 Queen Bed. There was no acknowledgment of my original order from the front desk employee. There was no apology or explanation for the change in room type. They gave me a 2 Queen room in the hope that I forgot what type of room I actually booked. Given the cost of the hotel, I at least expected some honesty and transparency.
