It was great except the staff ruined it for us
Pros:

It was very clean great location but staff was HORRIBLE! Very very rude, asked for a Starbucks they legit but my head off and said well all we have is beans it won’t be fancy! It had a Starbucks sign so I assumed they made it wasn’t made very clear that they didn’t have a menu, so she then proceeded to make my coffee very angrily, I was very uncomfortable, then my family and I was woke up out of dead sleep at midnight with the next room screaming at their kids for well over an hour, I didn’t say anything till it continued to go on for about 45 min so I went down to the desk as our phone in the room doesn’t call the front desk, the same lady I dealt with the coffee was there and she legit acted annoyed as hell that it was 1am and my whole family was woke up, she didn’t do shit about it, didn’t move a muscle and basically made me feel like I just needed to deal with it, and this am I had another rude staff member, you should have some nice staff members because your hotel is amazing but I will not be back because of the 2 VERY RUDE staff members other than them my stay was great but they Ruined it with how very very angry rude they were!

Cons:

Read above comment I put it in the wrong part, I like everything but the staff
