(2,293 reviews) Staff was great and room clean. Loved that they gave us endless supply of water. One negative was we got married on this trip and my husband wanted to surprise me with rose petals on bed which the hotel says they do. But when they found out we booked thru expedia they would not do it. I was very disappointed.
