The staff were exceptional! The lobby is lovely as well as the rooms. However, the only suggestion I would make is for the hotel to: * Ensure that the air conditioning works properly (it could not cool the room down). * Maintain the exterior of the building as meticulous as they maintain the interior spaces - the outside structure needs some upkeep.

When we arrived in the room it was warm. We turned on the AC and adjusted the thermostat. We then went out for dinner. When we returned 1 hour later the temperature was the same.
