Construction!

Construction throughout the property which was not disclosed. Service staff barged into occupied room without knocking. Dust, debris and noise were rampant throughout the property. Was still very expensive.

Perfect location with a very attentive staff. The rooms were large and well appointed. A minor issue is that they are undergoing a renovation which created a less attractive decor in areas but it was no impediment to enjoying my stay
