So so
I writing about my current holiday at your hotel. The building and room were beautiful however that is not enough. Thursday night a loud sounding noise woke us up three times. We thought it was an emergency alarm but discovered it was the heating unit. We had to turn the heat off to deal w the issue. The next day we called and someone came up to service the unit. Once again Saturday night the same issue. Once again, interruptedsleep in a very cold room.
Long lines every day because all the elevators were not functioning.

Terrific Experience
Service was really top notch. For the modest resort amenity fee, you actually get value. That is rare.

The tv service wasn't good and there was only the desk chair in the room.. Outside of those issues it was a good trip. The location is excellent for shopping and dining.

OK but not as good as it used to be
Our stay was basically fine, but there were a few disappointing issues. There was no door stop/chain/blocker on the door so staff member was able to walk in on us with unexpected delivery… it was disturbing… No in-room coffee and lobby coffee wasn’t hot. No more in-room bathrobes.
BUT. the room was clean and quiet. So that was good.

Breakfast staff useless
Went for breakfast 9.15 am sunday with prepaid breakfast and asked if we had a reservation. No one said you needed a reservation
Told they are booked out. No other option given such as we can bring it to your room.
Unbelievable way to treat paying guests

Pleasant Stay
It was a pleasant stay. I was in town for a concert and left early in the morning so I didn't get the most out of my visit. I'd definitely stay again.
