The hotel was beautiful there was only a few things that I would mention the bedspreads on our beds were really thin ,could of been thicker but our room was pretty. The pool water was a little chilly and while we were swimming cold water was being put in it. And lastly the drink prices were a little high but overall a good place to stay

Seems like sometimes there was no one working and it was hard to get any assistance from the concierge especially if you calling from your room. 50/50 on someone picking up. Regarding the property it was very nice a little tedious getting to your room as you have to take 2 separate elevators. Overall not bad stay but not amazing. Great location and very close to the riverwalk.
