The lobby is beautiful and makes you feel like you are in a really special hotel. The staff at check in was extremely welcoming, offered a glass of Champaign, gave great suggestions for dining and also gave me an upgrade to a higher floor. The staff in the restaurant was also great and the food was great (we had breakfast there).

Not as clean as expected. Housekeeping came in the first day and made the bed but did not vacuum or clean the bathroom. Soap dish empty as was shower pump. No top sheet on bed only heavy comforter. Not ideal in summer. All was taken care of when they first asked how my stay was going. First impressions are key!

The staff was exceptional. From the valet guy answering questions, even though I wasn't using valet, to the front desk clerks, cleaning people, etc. All very friendly and helpful. The king bed was not pillow top comfortable and the blackout curtains were too short and had spaces so it didn't black out the room, very hard to sleep.
