Staff was courteous and helpful. Room was small but clean. Laundry room was very convenient. Traffic noise throughout the night. Reasonable price for this expensive destination.
Great service, very clean for the price, will say shower curtains were too thin, so water did get almost everywhere at times, other than that great for the price.
I stayed here recently for about 15 days, and everything was great. But I would like to give a special thanks to the front desk staff. They were all incredibily friendly, helpful, and attentive to every one of my needs/questions.
