Jodi, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

We originally booked the Street Car suite to stay in and when we checked in, it was having maintenance, so they upgraded us to the larger suite inside the hotel and it was very nice. The bed was the most comfortable bed I have slept in, in a hotel. We didn't take advantage of the pool because the weather wasn't very nice. It was walking distance to restaurants and bars nearby. The coffee shop in the hotel was convenient.
