Acceptable Stay
clean room breakfast buffet attentive staff slow check-in expensive parking windy pool
The room was clean and well-kept. The breakfast buffet had various options. Everything was cooked perfectly. Staff were attentive but not hovering.
The check-in process was a bit slow. I waited in line. Valet parking felt ridiculously expensive at $89. The pool area was windy, so it wasn't warm enough.
