It is simply a gorgeous hotel. Every detail with the design was carefully thought out. The millwork, the fixtures and the ambience all are perfectly married to enhance the guest's experience. The linens are superb, thick and luxurious. The mattresses are delightful. The only I would say could be improved upon...the toilet paper really has room for improvement.
