My boyfriend and I decided to take an impromptu weekend get away. Booking was easy and the property was nice. The staff made this property stand out. The woman who checked us in was amazing. I was expecting a totally different personality from a night check in person. At other properties the night staff can't usually be bothered to be helpful. She was so helpful. She told us where to go and that there was a party of 12yr old girls on our floor. She says to let her know if they were to loud. She asked if we needed anything and I had forgotten toothpaste and my bf had forgotten his deodorant. She gave us both items complementary. Oh and she also found my rewards account i had forgotten about. Her customer service was exemplary.
