Winter blues
We were there for the Winter Blues Festival. Our room was nice and clean. Bed was ok but not great for the price. There were a lot of people there and a lot of drinking. The people in the room next to us were arguing in the night and had music blaring. So we did not sleep well

Because last month i was there not even a month and room service was 24 hours but they didn't say on the online when u fill out for the room that they didn't have 24 hour's anymore that's one of the big reason i chose to go back

Superb stay!!
A superb stay! The great service started when we walked in the door and Jane greeted us. She immediately put in a request for the connoisseur to reach out to us about getting to our event. As soon as we reached our room he called and told us he’d be right there when we needed a ride and would pick us up as well. He was so friendly on the ride too! The bartender Rebecca was helpful with places to see and gave great customer service. In the morning the barista at the coffee shop was helpful, cheerful, and thanked us for our stay! I can’t forget the valet people that parked the truck. They were talkative and friendly. And the bedding…amazingly comfortable! 5 star stay!

Wonderful Front Desk
When I made the reservation I put in a request to see if we could get a higher floor because my son is really interested in skyscrapers. The lady at the front desk was very friendly and helpful. She talked to my son about the tallest buildings nearby and she put us on the highest floor she could find available. My son was really happy. It made the stay extra special. Thank you!

We enjoyed the main restaurant, the atmosphere and the workout room. Pool is nice, but water is cold and no hot tub. Didn't try the breakfast restaurant, looked nice but the breakfast didn't look too appealing. Other than that it was decent
