9.4/10 Exceptional! (1,019 reviews)
Everything was great except for two things that happened.
We stayed in the corner suit on the 6th floor and the hand held small shower leaked continuously when it was turned off.
The second issue was one of the staff entered into the room without knocking. Thankfully she didn't require therapy because we both had our clothes on!
We loved you establishment and would love to visit there again. Your evening manager is top notch.
