Liked: Cleanliness
Disliked: Amenities
This used to be a terrific upscale property; I have stayed there twice or more for over twenty years. It must have changed hands recently. Several amenities, and some basics have been downgraded or eliminated. It has the feeling of excessive cost cutting and aging for the price point versus comparably priced and rated properties. It was best some time ago when still affiliated with Marriott. Not sure who the current owner is, but it has declined substantially in appeal. Will book elsewhere this summer.
