I am not sure if you mentioned this in all your info but they are the only hotel that is included in the EMH!

Marc and I have stayed here a few times and we really like it. The only thing I DON'T like is there is a sales person trying to sell you on the Hilton vacation club or whatever it is called. I always just walk by them and ignore them. LOL. The other thing we noticed is one time we either had really noisy neighbors or the walls were pretty thin. I am talking like 2 am people talking loudly and slamming doors. Overall this is a great place to stay and still be close to it all!
