I was disappointed that the shower was not maintained or installed properly. For a venue that charges relatively premium rates, the shower doors should not be on backwards nor slide without being touched. These are basics for a well-maintained facility. I just spent as much on a hotel IN SAN FRANCISCO that knew how to install shower doors. Really? Shame on you. Staff - on the other hand - were fabulous!
