Satisfactory visit
helpful staff luggage service amazing bathtub dirty room stained curtain cleaning issue
The staff members were very kind! They let us check our luggage at the desk so we could explore the city on our last day. The bathtub was amazing, and I used it twice. A free bottle of wine was a nice touch!
The room was clearly not cleaned well. I found random stuff on the ground in the bathroom. The shower curtain looked badly stained, it was not pleasant.

double charge no apology
I felt disappointed because the hotel put a hold on two of our credit cards. It was the full amount of our stay on each card until we checked out. That meant they held about $1,400 on EACH card. No apology came when we checked out and the holds finally disappeared. It.
