Wonderful property. The front desk is very nice. The hotel is pricey as it is and then you add $30 valet plus tip. The whole property is very classy, and generally clean. Its the rooms that need attention. I walked into a room with bulbs not working, there was an old soap on the soap holder, the body wash was on top of the toilet bowl. Just little things but not so little if you think why was there an old bar soap?
