"Our room was nice and clean. The staff I spoke to was very kind and helpful. I accidentally left a shopping bag in the cabinet when we checked out and the GM Karla contacted me and was able to get it shipped to me. I was so afraid it was gone forever! The location is nice because we were close to the mall and having restaurants close was nice as well. We did not go down for the breakfast, but when we went to check out I noticed a line backing all the way up to the elevators for breakfast and it seemed somewhat overwhelming."
