I really liked this hotel. It was clean. All of the staff were super nice. I would give 5 stars, but I don't know if Hotels.com is aware of this destination fee. I feel like it forces me to make purchases that I normally wouldn't. Also, I would recommend offering less expensive meal options, especially at breakfast. The bed and pillows were super comfortable.

The staff was courteous. This hotel option was more expensive than other, equally good hotels, but with no included breakfast for guests. Overall, the room was very clean (a little too dark for me—I had a hard time seeing what was in my suitcase at night). It needed more sources of light in the room. The bed was extremely comfortable and the pillows were great. And I felt very safe while there.
But I could have received more and paid much less at a nearby hotel.

The room and hotel was spotless. Friendly, attentive representatives of the hotel. Was in a great location to a parking garage, in walking distance if you choose to not valet park with the hotel.
