The staff was WONDERFUL and quite helpful. Adam, the head bartender, made lovely cocktails. The hotel provided a peaceful haven, especially considering how busy the city was.
Our room was spacious, however, it needed extra storage. I missed having a FULL length mirror in the room. the continental breakfast did not have much fruit.
