Property is always stunning. It’s always been a favorite of mine. On this trip, the service at front desk was very poor, long lines and miscommunication with my reservation with a family member. Should never happen when we happy to pay big $ for this hotel. They embarrassed my sister for no reason. I’ll think twice next time I’m in Boston.
