A 5-star experience in every aspect
In 23 years of traveling, I’ve never met a friendlier hotel staff in my entire life. Every person in every capacity was so accommodating, so friendly, and so genuine. The experience is definitely 5 stars and I can’t thank all of you enough for making us feel so welcomed and comfortable.

The radisson was pretty comfortable- it looked pretty new and fresh and well kept. The breakfast buffet was actually excellent- surprising selection and quality (would highly recommend getting it included in your room rate as it is much more economical) but extremely limited room service menu (e.g. 2 burgers and 4 entrees), I couldn't seem to get my A/C to work-it was cooling during the day but consistently woke up to a hot room around 3am? If you don't want room service or buffet, only other option is the very expensive/fancy steakhouse or the bar. I had a chicken quesadilla at the bar, it came with no cheese and chicken soaked in soy sauce but Innocent and Peter noticed my concerns and had them remake it properly so kudos to them. Also it took them 20 minutes to check me out (despite having already paid for the room and left a card for incidentals) and then when my uber got delayed they told me they had a taxi outside (for 4x more) so as it was getting late I cancelled my uber and prepaid only to find the taxi was not outside and actually 10 minutes away, which was frustrating particularly since the whole process should have been 3 minutes and not 30 which really matter for those early morning flights.
