3/5 Okay

Travelled with family
Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service
I have a Tesla. Even though there aren’t EV chargers, I appreciated the front desk offering that if I found a plug in the garage that I was more than welcome to plug in to it. We stayed in the loft room. Upstairs got very warm and the AC didn’t reach upstairs. Room was okay. A bit dated despite the make over.
