We absolutely loved it! I traveled with my husband for the weekend. The hotel was so beautiful! Everyone was super attentive. I constantly received messages if we needed anything, housekeeping, we even got a welcoming message also a reminder what time to check in and check out. If I had a question or anything I would message and I would get a quick reply. The place itself is so beautiful! The bedroom is also really nice! We will definitely return!

Todo perfecto! Unico feedback interno cuando housekeeping empiece darle instrucciones de que no se quede conversando en los pasillos o proxima alguna habitación con huéspedes ya que se escucha todo y hay personas aun descansando. Pero todo lo demás servicio de front desk valer parking y restaurante excelente!

Hotel was beautiful and staff was great. I had to ask for my bottle of champagne which was my upgrade. The room was nice but there was no hot water to take a shower. If there was hot water I would have def rated the hotel much higher

Staff was great, hotel was beautiful and clean. The staff texted daily asking if we’d like room service or had any questions or concerns. They have recommendations on things to do. It was 12 minutes from the airport and 10 minutes from the mall. The rooftop pool was small but we were the only ones in it most of the time. The rooftop was very chic. The rooftop restaurant was amazing. The Wellington was chef’s kiss. The area felt safe.
