Wyndham Independence
Staff was nice, pool was perfect temperature and the hot tub was not too hot and had powerful jets! Our room was clean and comfortable and the breakfast was much better than most!

Very nice suite! Comfortable bed clean bathroom and most of all the breakfast was so good! Had a lot of the typical things at a hotel breakfast yogurt, bagels, muffins, make your own waffles etc.. The difference was made to order eggs with a variety of ingredients for omelettes.
