Excellent customer service by valet parking team. At midnight, I realized that a substantial amount of water was coming thru the bathroom ceiling from the room above. This required that I change rooms. Hotel did not readily offer any offset of fees, surprisingly.

I would not recommend & will never stay here again. The bed was so saggy, the pillows uncomfortable & the sheets rough & worn. I could hardly sleep. Also my room was not made up during the day. I left the “make up my room” light on when I left at 9:30am. But by 4pm when I returned the room still hadn’t been made. By then it was too late, I hardly wanted to be bothered.

My room was not cleaned and when I checked out, they checked me out of the wrong room. Property is beautiful but service is incredibly lacking for an awarded four star hotel.
