"The staff was fantastic, especially at the front desk. I am upset that I can't remember the name of the Asian gentleman who checked me in, but he was one of the best, most friendly and helpful front desk agents I have ever interacted with. I was in a bind because I lost my wallet and didn't have ID or my credit card with me, and he found a way to verify everything and get me checked in. You can't ask for a better performance by a member of the hotel staff. He was fantastic, as we're everyone else I interacted with at the hotel. I will absolutely stay here again!"
