The property is great but I was very uncomfortable sending an image of my drivers license on line prior to arrival. The front desk told me that I could have take care of it when I got there but the communication I received didn’t say anything about being optional. Traveled a lot and never was asked such a thing. Made me feel uncomfortable. Maybe include a highlighted statement saying that it can be done at time of check in.
