This place is typically great, but unfortunately our bath tub in the suite didn’t hold water. We were really liking forward to a great soaking tub, but it wasn’t an option in our room due to the drain being broken. When mentioned to the staff upon checkout there was no apology, just “we’ll mention it to the maintenance staff.” Not the level of service I’ve come to expect from the Edgewater. Very disappointing.
