When we booked the price was super high and we were rethinking our decision. I'm glad we didn't and we went through with our plans. For great amenities to even better restaurants the hotel was amazing. We ordered room service and the food was so good we had to do it again. Easily one of the most pleasant hotel experiences to date! We will be visiting again

We had such a great time! The room was lovely with a fantastic view. The staff at the front desk including the valets were all so nice.
