"Andrew at the reception desk was amazing…he aranged rose petals all over the room and a bottle of Prosecco to celebrate my wife’s birthday when we got back from dinner… I do have a complaint about the woman at the desk out side the low life on Monday morning…we arrived for breakfast at 10:30 and were put on a waiting list she said would be 25 minutes…well we ended up being called for a table at 11:35… I had checked with the hostess about would we still be able to get breakfast…she assured me we would…we ordered breakfast and 10 minutes later a woman who identified herself as the manager notified us “that chef had thrown out the eggs. “ and we could no longer have breakfast and all she could do was say she apologized…I have never been treated so disrespectfully …."

"This place all around was beautiful, the location is great. My only complaint was that our coffee maker was missing a piece and I let the front office know about it and instead of getting a new piece or new coffee maker they told me oh well nothing they can do about it. They have a coffee bar from 8-10am but we have a baby so our mornings start at 5am so not having a coffee maker in the room sucked."
