The wi-fi signal proved quite weak. I struggled to connect in my room. the restaurant menu was also a little underwhelming. it advertised haute cuisine online, but the actual offerings felt more like standard pub fare. had there been other dining options nearby, i might have considered canceling my dinner reservation. this lack of transparency was a bit disappointing, weak wi-fi
