We got the room with the view of the pool and city and it was phenomenal!!! Also staff were really friendly and the room was clean! Parking was more expensive than what we were told over the phone but apart from the extortionate parking fee this hotel was pretty amazing.

It was awesome to be able to seamlessly check in and park at the hotel and go right from the parking garage into an elevator and up to my room. It was a beautiful hotel with amazing views of the city.
