"The young gentleman working at the front desk during our stay on August 27 and 28 was incredibly helpful and went above and beyond for us. My mom loves watching Spanish TV, and when we couldn’t find the channel she wanted, he came to our room and even connected the TV to one of his own personal streaming accounts so she could watch her shows. It was such a thoughtful gesture and really meant a lot to us. The room was very large, spacious, comfortable, and clean. Breakfast was also very good, and the property is in a great location. Overall, we had a wonderful stay and really appreciated the exceptional service from the front desk."
