Property is very nice, clean, and convenient. However, we were disappointed with alleged VIP room upgrade. An upgraded room was available but only offered to us if we paid for upgrade. Not what we bargained for or what was promised by Expedia VIP amenity. Otherwise, hotel is very good. Outstanding breakfasy crew.
