"Iโ€™m glad that I did not listen to the reviews. While it is true, there are minimal to no staff interactions, I found we didnโ€™t need the staff. The self check in code let us in the front door and our key was in our room. Our room had all we needed for a 2 night stay. The continental breakfast was well stocked and just what you would expect (and what was advertised) We had a clean, comfortable, spacious room that we had two good nights sleep while we spent our days exploring."
