Just OK.

Nice rooms but sloppy housekeeping and one restaurant and bar was closed for the week we were there. No movies available in house at the time due to tech issues. Good location but try one of the other Crystalbrook hotels for a better experience.

The hotel was great. It was a little tough getting our a/c working for us as it said the room was “unoccupied” on the control so would not cool. We had to ask the desk to adjust it twice. Had to do a 2nd request for bed sheet change (due to sweaty nights) after we asked in the morning when we left and came back to not done. It the hotel was upgraded and very nice and would stay there and recommend it to others
