Absolutely...
The Director of Training will send you an email before you go up with all of this information. Dress is collared shirt with slacks and closed toe shoes. The hotel provides free detergent/dryer sheets with a nice front load washer/dryer up on the 5th floor (also free). I would just bring enough clothes to get you through the week and do laundry on the weekend.
The first week is IFR review. Know you're IFR procedures when you show up and it'll be easier. You'll have a sim check at the end of that week but it's basic IFR stuff. There are NO tricks at all during training. There'll be times where you might think to yourself "It can't be this easy. There has to be a "gotcha" somewhere". There is no "gotcha" anywhere during all of it.
I would recommend NOT reading through the AFM or trying to memorize any V speeds or anything like that. The training department does a pretty good job of letting you know what you need to know so just take good notes and study. You'll receive an iPad your first day with access to all of the training materials too.
