Decent but underwhelmed
First impression was not good. Room was not ready at 3 PM checkin time. Front desk offered and completed pre-check with the expectation that the room would be ready in 15-20 minutes. They told me I could sit in the lobby and wait or they could give me a call me when room was available. I told them I’d just drive down the street to check out the waterfront. Not sure if that contributed to miscommunication but they never called. I returned an hour later and the room was ready. The room overwhelmingly smelled like cleaning products and was stuffy, but it was clean. I had to seek help with the TV later in the evening and the issue was promptly resolved. Accommodations were decent but in my opinion not commensurate with cost.
