We stayed at this property mid June 2008 and were excitted to go after hearing of their extensive renovations. After reading reviews on Trip Advisor, we requested a full sized balcony and no connecting doors to other rooms. We were given a corner room on a high floor and our requests were met regarding full sized balcony and no connecting doors. I found the room to be small and the furniture and decor quite dark and over powering making the room probably appear smaller than it actually is. There definately was no extra room if one needed to have a cot brought in. The view of the pool was lovely, however. The grounds are lovely as is the pool and hot tub. The landscaping is lovely. The beds were very comfortable. The housekeeping services were great and made up the room in a timely manner daily and did a great job cleaning. There was an "odor" on our floor in the hallways when we checked in and fans were set up. I think the carpets in the hall had been recently cleaned and the odor lingered for a couple of days. In hindsight we should have asked for a room change but did not even though the odor provoked headaches. The bathroom is very small but clean. There is a seperate area with a sink and mirror. The parking charges are very high at 14.00 per night. We had flown but rented a car. The front desk did mention that if one booked through Triple A the rates would be less for parking. Wireless internet is also high at 9.95 plus taxes per day. We did not eat at any of the hotel restaurants so cannot comment on them. The snack shop off the main lobby has a lot of stuff in it and is very convenient for snacks. This hotel is close to the convention center and does in house events as well which can make accessing the elevators a bit of a trial at times. Having stayed in a lot of the local hotels in this area over the last several years, I feel this one is a bit over priced but if you can get a rate deal, it is a nice place to stay. We were there 8 days.
