10/10 Excellent
"After a very disappointing assignment to a 1st floor room (having requested a high floor weeks ago) I was not happy w/ unfriendly staff member (ONLY one tho) who said she couldn't reassign & hadn't noticed my request. Other than a hint of musty smell, all was extremely clean & VERY well appointed. Big thick towels, comfy bed, lg shampoo, conditioner & body wash in shower where you cld turn on the water & wait for it to get hot without getting wet! Towels by the sparkling pool as well as in the gym, 24/7 lobby coffee w/ ALL fixngs (even sugar free French vanilla Torani). Breakfast had microwave if eggs or sausage weren't warm enough. Tons of toppings for oatmeal and waffle maker. Wld easily stay again."
