Very good hotel. Friendly and helpful staff. Expedia/Hotels.com messed up by booking me on a Free Breakfast room, but had sent the info wrong to the hotel. When I landed after a frustrating flight and the reception told me I don't have breakfast included, I was super frustrated and even a little stern in my response to the staff. But, they helped me fix the same. Most of my stay was seamless. Breakfast and room service including food and housekeeping was excellent. Was worth the price.
