Overall we were pleased with our stay and would recommend. Front office, valet, and Lionne dinner service were excellent. Breakfast meals were good but the service was poor especially given that there were only 3-4 tables being served. Coffee shop breakfast menu selection is limited and the coffee mediocre.

Teach Perfection and the best way to run a hotel !! I was supposed to be picked up at the airport by their shuttle, and apparently, the person taking my reservation never signed me up in the reservation book (or wherever he's supposed t...
