Wow! That's all I can say! But, I'm going to find the words to say more, because this hotel and its great staff deserve it! I booked this hotel a while ago for my husband's surprise birthday vacation. It was a total of 6 of us, I love IHG! This one is definitely 1 of the top locations that I've visited in the past 15 to 20 years. I'm talking conveniently easy to locate, and very kind staff. Everyone, from the door person to registration staff, to the cleaning staff was so courteous all the time! They speak when they see you. They hold doors, and they answer questions! Our first great experience was with Shay and Andrew. We arrived a little early, a little too early to check in, and was told that they sold out the previous evening, and there would be a wait to check in. These 2 individuals were very helpful with allowing us to store our luggage and provided great recommendations for things to do while we await our room. Their enthusiasm and personality were top-tier. And to be honest, they looked great! They were the perfect representation of what I want to see when visiting a business. This dynamic duo spoke very well, provided great professional, genuine, kind service. These guys are gems! Management, make sure these two get anything they want and everything they deserve to keep them representing IHG. I've written so much about the staff, I forgot to mention the décor during my stay! The décor was amazing! 5 Star Stay!! Highly recommended !!
