The stay was very good after that check in experience.
Pros:

The property was clean and quiet. Restaurants were conveniently located.

Cons:

I didn’t like the attitude of one the front desk clerks. I didn’t have the deposit so I couldn’t get into the room even though the room was paid for. I tried to explain that my partner was on a later flight and he has the money . She told me to have at it when I told her I’ll try to get the money sent to me.

Cons:

I didn’t like that coffee wasn’t included.
