"Stayed overnight after surgery. Hotel was clean, staff were wonderful. Sad that there was no restaurant in hotel open earlier than 5. Hotel comped an appetizer and drink there but I was already sawing logs. Bed was very comfy; no foreign body odor smells on the linens. Could not get the lights on each side of the bed to turn on, so had to rely on one across the room. Also, the light on the desk did not work. Disappointed that the hotel only offered direct tv to view. I could not locate info on how to connect to Wi-Fi, and lack of light in the room was the main issue. In spite of all the minutiae, I’d definitely stay there again."
