When we arrived at the from desk at midnight, there was already another lady there that was truly upset and warned us not to stay here. It seemed like there were only 3 employees working there at 1 time. But at least the staff were polite. For the 10.5 hours we slept there I was charged $688. There is no free breakfast, no free WiFi, and minimal service. But we did get 3 towels for a 4 person room and a TV that had 8 channels and kept turning off randomly. We called for more towels that never came but managed. It’s a beautiful hotel and I appreciate the history, but for close to $700 a night I can get so much more, but at least the short staff is friendly.

The surrounds are beautiful. The beds were comfortable. The plaza outside was very nice, except for the leaf blowing every morning at sunrise.:) The food was a little bland at the three places we dined in. We were hoping for bolder menu items. The bathroom shower curtain was loose so the bar hung down, causing the shower curtain to sink to the middle. The sink stopper wasn’t connected to the handle. The front desk could be a little more friendly but the servers at the restaurants were great.

While the hotel looked and felt beautiful, the room itself needs upgrades. The bathroom had a dripping water sound that we heard all night long and the a/c never went cooler than 75 the whole night. Thankfully there was a window that we could open since it was pretty chilly at night.

Beautiful property with a lot to see. We walked all around the place and enjoyed the architecture immensely. The restaurants are very pricey so keep that in mind. Would stay there again.

Save your money and stay away from this hotel

This has got to be the worst hotel stay I have ever had. Extremely Loud music that vibrated the room all night. Screaming at all hours of the day. DJ going all night long. The AC is broken and there is a constant clicking sound from a space above the bathroom. I called down to the front desk to ask if there was a event going on because it was so loud and she pretended to not know what noise I was talking about and basically said there was nothing she could do.

We had a bad experience with security during our first night initially the front desk did not tell us that we need to show our key card upon going to our room . This security person shouted at my daughter and was very rude and condescending he could have asked for it in a professional way. We reported him to the head of security and if we did not file a written complaint it would have been swept under the rug. My family has traveled frequently and did not encounter this behavior. I would not recommend this facility to anyone. I would discourage them
