For $300 per night this room was way overpriced. The phone didn't work. There were not enough amenities for this price.

Our issue is with Expedia. Although I searched for a 3/4 check in date, I was given a room for 3/5. I realized too late and therefore couldn't afford to make the trip if I had to pay for two nights. I missed a very important (to me) function. I know, Buyer Beware - I learned my lesson...I will never use Expedia again.

We had quite a large group at the hotel for my son's wedding. The rooms were spacious and spotless. The hotel was clean, and the staff was very friendly. They allowed our group to use the "breakfast area" at midnight when we returned from the reception, and were very gracious with a loud group of revelers. Our guests enjoyed the free breakfast and coffee. The only complaint we had was that many guests said the hot water went lukewarm for anyone that showered after about 8:00 am. Otherwise, a very clean, safe and friendly hotel.
