"Wonderful experience. I was in town for literally 24 hours for a wedding, they were able to accommodate early check in which was so appreciated! My first room had an issue with the AC but I was rushing for the wedding so I mentioned it on my way out, hoping maintenance could fix while I was gone. Immediately Bee at the front desk had it handled! At 11pm when I came back from the wedding, she had arranged for my room to be switched and the AC in that room was perfect. Also a shoutout to Tiana and Ashley at the front desk. These 3 women are 10/10!"
