“What stood out to me was the incredibly efficient check-in process, reportedly taking only minutes, plus the exceptionally comfortable beds and complimentary breakfast; however, some guests have reported issues with overbooked rooms, so it's wise to confirm your reservation. Despite some growing pains as a newer property and a few safety concerns mentioned, the staff's attentiveness, particularly during issues like AC malfunctions, seems to make for a generally positive stay.”
