"They don’t have spa…. The massage service is only offered in the room, which may not be ideal for guests traveling with children. It’s difficult to fully relax and enjoy the experience without a dedicated spa or massage are"
"The room was spacious (we got upgraded, which was a plus!) wonderful shower, and the blackout curtains were great. The beds were a little more firm than I’m used to, but overall, it was a wonderful stay!"
