Friendly staff
The stay was excellent. The staff were fabulous. I received a champagne toast on check in. The room was clean and the bed was very comfortable. Honestly the service from the front desk staff was amazing. My only complaint, and it's very minor, is that my main floor room and hall had a very strong chlorine smell, I believe coming from the pool. Otherwise it was amazing.

The hotel staff put me in a first floor room with a floor to ceiling window that looked out at a service walkway. I’m a pretty regular guest here and this was clearly one of the worst rooms in the hotel. The front desk associate assured me that the room was safe. I asked for another room and they reluctantly put me in a second floor room that was a full 2 minute walk from the elevator - which was fine, but they tried to detour me from taking it as “it was quite a long walk”. They did not provide me with a folio and said I needed to retrieve it elsewhere. I stay at this hotel often, but will think twice about booking here again. Incredibly disappointing.
