Check in staff was too soft spoken and asked him to repeat himself several times. Room was ready and clean! Dinner at La Moynes was over the top excellent! Late night piano bar was a perfect touch. Breakfast at the cafe was extremely disappointing as a ladies group of mahjong players were playing in the cafe and it was loud and disruptive. We mentioned it when checking out and it was dismissed by telling us it was their third stay at the hotel. Ours was only the second visit I suppose. Was told we didn’t have to pay for valet parking when we made reservations at La Moynes, but were sent a charge for $27 regardless. Although some issues, We will stay again when we visit Mobile.
Exquisite decor
Piano bar was wonderful
Superb cuisine
Caviar yes!
