Love this property and have stayed during the week before for work. We stayed two nights on Fri/Sat nights and the nighttime noise outside was horrid from 9pm-1am. Luckily we traveled with our sound machine but still heard it. This is not the hotels fault but something I’ve never experienced.

The front desk staff was exemplary, as were the breakfast servers. The breakfast choices were plentiful; I appreciated that. I was unused to the magnets for the “do not disturb” option; another guest pointed it out to me. The cleaning seemed to be random.

The staff was friendly and quick, the establishment was clean. The pool was inoperable due to children putting toilet paper in the pool. The hot tub was open so that was enjoyable. I asked for a late checkout and they were kind to extend my checkout by 1 hour. Overall I enjoyed my stay.
