10/10 Exceptional

Parking was easy, the front desk staff was welcoming, beds were comfortable, the room was clean, the temperature control was easy. The shower had nice shampoo, conditioner and body wash dispensers. My only (very minor) complaint was that the bedding itself made a crinkly noise when we moved in bed, which was sort of loud. But other than that everything was great!
