Not hassle free
They didn't have the room I booked. Waited 25 minutes to get upgraded room. It was on 2nd floor directly above the entrance, so....constant noise. Parking was horrible for someone who gets in late from events. 2 years running had to struggle to get a spot . On checkout, told me they don't print receipts through 3rd party bookings. I said you did last year, she pushes one button and out pops a receipt.

Really cool room. Clean and nice. It wasn't quiet at night though. We were at the end of the hall farthest away from the elevator so I have no idea what we were hearing. The hot tub also wasn't hot, though it warmed up as we had the jets on, but wasn't warm enough. Was impressed it was functional though as most hotels aren't.

Average but not gluten-free - EV CHARGING
Overall, the day was fairly average. I arrived about an hour before Before check-in was told that I would need to wait a couple of hours and when I came back to check in and I had to wait about 10 minutes to get the check-in process undertaken as the associate behind the counter was busy on the phone. I have stayed at other hotels in this brand and they have had gluten-free option for breakfast in this location did not have any and I was told by the kitchen staff that they normally do not.
The main reason I wanted to stay at this hotel compared to neighboring hotels as they had EV charging available, which I needed for my vehicle. I was very pleased with the charging stations and their accessibility.
