Disliked: Cleanliness, amenities
Great location and staff was amazing. Rooms are EXTREMELY small and dated. Felt dirty as well. The steak restaurant LT was definitely a 5 star bill but the dinner lacked anything special. The steaks were all tough and flavorless. Total waste of a nights dinner. Spoke with several people at the pool who had the same experience. The pizza place at the hotel was phenomenal and probably the best pizza I have ever had! Drinks at the pool are way overpriced ($90 for 4 drinks). Nothing was terrible, and again, staff was wonderful but absolutely not worth several thousand dollars for a few days stay. Much better options for that kind of money with the same great location and way better rooms and amenities.

Staff were amazing all around from check in to restaurant, pool, bar and rooms staff. Great jazz and energy in the lobby. Rooms are small and alley is noisy. Shower was not a highlight. Shower head would not stay in position. TV would not stream our devices or let us login to apps.
