I liked the property because the hospital, parking and dining options were in one area and was easy to access. I parked my vehicle in the garage and walked to the other areas that I needed. Everything was within walking distance…..LIKE RIGHT IN YOUR FACE CLOSE. Tracy that works at the Bistro inside the hotel is super nice and she was by far my favorite staff member.
