Very upscale hotel. Nice ambiance. Good: I stayed a junior sweet so the room has a good size. Bed mattress is not too firm not too soft, comfortable. Plenty of hot water to fill a very nice tub. The shower space is big, good water pressure. Convenient location. Bad: the tub was very dirty when we moved in. I had to ask them to scrub it. AC/heater was acting weird, got hot and cold alternating between. Entry way is big and spacious in the room but kind of waste of spaces. No dining area in the room . Toilet configuration is strange - heater is right front of toilet so couldn’t stretch legs.
