Nightly reception on the rooftop is great. Complimentary buffet breakfast has many wonderful options for a variety of tastes. Allows four-legged family members too!! Location is terrific.
The roof top pool has plenty of area to sit, along with the bar inside was enjoyable.
Breakfast was also very good. Rooms were clean and beds comfortable.
The hotel was nice, the staff was pleasant, the location was good, all of the lighting in the room was so bright, non dimmable, blue-white harsh and intense it was horrific.
