Disappointed hotel

Hotel average expensive, but breakfast is way too disappointing. Person in charge yell us for some other people fault throwing liquids to garbage, or because some leave a jar open. Breakfast was always the same, and sometimes at 8:00 there was less option. Hardboiled egg, scramble eggs, oatmeal,

While the staff was exceptionally kind and went above and beyond to make every guest feel welcomed and appreciated, my overall experience was impacted by several issues. The primary reason for my lower rating is the housekeeping and valet service. Housekeeping fell short—upon checking into my room, I found the complimentary toiletries (body wash, shampoo, and conditioner) were all completely empty. Additionally, I developed a strange rash from the bedding, which was concerning and unpleasant. As for the valet service, which costs around $70 per night, the experience was frustrating. Despite the stated 30-minute retrieval time, I often had to wait 45 minutes or longer for my vehicle. This happened multiple times throughout my stay, and it seemed the valet team was either understaffed or not consistently on site. While the hospitality of the front-line staff was a highlight, the inconsistencies in service and cleanliness made the overall experience disappointing.

This was an amazing stay. The room was in tip top shape and just what I needed for my staycation. The entire staff was kind and courteous. I loved they way they interacted with one another. It showed good company culture. Honorable mention to Letitia for the warmest welcome and most simple check in.
