Overall we had a nice stay. Location is great, room was nice (though under the bed could use a good vacuum), bathroom was modern and I really enjoyed the amount of windows in the room (even one in the bathroom). That being said there are a few things that are big and should be mentioned when booking:
-I pre-paid for this stay and even then Expedia usually shows you the amount (if any) that a hotel will charge on site (fees, taxes, etc that weren't precharged). Upon arrival I learned that the hotel would be taking $40 per night for their "resort" fee which is just a sorry excuse for extra intake (no real resort amenities here, they list "benefits" but it's what's advertised to already be included in the stay, like the coffee maker and tea). Upon inspection I found this fee in the very tiny print on the bottom of the listing. Feels a bit deliberate and scheming on my end. $40 doesn't seem like a lot but when you stay 4 nights that's $160. If you're on a budget that could make a difference. Take that how you will. It's especially problematic to me just because it was hidden, especially at the already insane cost of this hotel during the holiday season.
-one of the reasons I picked this property was because of it's VIP access designation (which means there is a possibility of a room upgrade). Upon arrival I was told that the upgrade isn't really ever possible as they have very very few rooms that "qualify" to be upgraded into and that doesn't include any of the suites.
