This place was a gem. Location, price, southern hospitality, easy parking and modest but useful breakfast and evening drinks options on the lobby fIoor. Indoor pool looked great too. I generally choose Hyatt Place properties and found this one up to their usual high standards. This is a high-quality 3-star hotel that I would definitely stay at again and recommend to others.

The mattress was squeaky when you sat on it. Loud street noise until after 11pm. Staff was very responsive and pleasant. Decor is very nice. Room set-up was so comfortable. Lots of good details.

We stayed at the hotel because we were attending a show at the Colonial Life Area and did not want to drive home after the performance. Check in time was 3:00 pm we arrived just after 2:00 pm because there had been no traffic during our journey. The lady at the desk said it would cost $25 if we wanted to check in early!!!! I said I would wait in the lobby instead. The lot for self-parking at $18 was full but valet parking was offered at the same amount so I had someone park my car. About 2:30 pm, I noticed that two couples were getting their keys and not paying an additional $25. The front desk lady said those people had checked in online, but she would "let me" check in before 3:00. If we had arrived at 9:00 am or very early, I could understand requiring additional money for an early check in. But, less than an hour?? I have traveled all over the world and stayed in many different hotels. No one has EVER required money if I arrived a little before check in time when a room was available. Ridiculous! While the hotel was lovely, comfortable and convenient, short people might have a difficult reaching the bath towels that are store HIGH in the shower. Make sure you get one down or have someone get one down for you.

Extended our stay 2 more weeks as house being remodeled/repaired. Staff here is very hospitable & can’t do enough to make it easy for us. This is obviously a well managed facility & employees are exceptional in every way! Hyatt is my new favorite hotel. I just wish pets were more segregated.

Overall the hotel is nice. Great location with solid dining options within walking distance. However, as is with the hotel industry as a whole, there are simple things that have taken a slide over the past 5 years that frankly…are piss poor. I’m not one to whine about cost if there are amenities that match the cost. You would think that for $750 per night, there would possibly be a couple of bottles of water in the little “dorm room” refrigerator, and maybe the towels would be a little less like sandpaper. The room was spacious and clean, but few of the benefits of paying for a nice hotel are just missing. This could be wrong, but I do not believe that the profit margins are so tight that we need to be taken advantage of any longer. COVID has passed! It’s time to return to basic amenities. Remember when air travel and hotel stays used to be fun, and a bit posh? Well their not now and I now lump hotel stays in the pile with air travel.
