Jamie, Dec 2016
Pros (+) Beautiful. Comfortable, luxurious.
Cons (-) Staff assistance was hit or miss. Very frustrating. Some staff was very helpful. Others were not to the point of carelessness or rudeness. At this hotel I had expected service to be exquisite. It was not. For the price there's other hotels with better service who value their customers more highly.
