  • Polite and prompt service.

    I realized I had left something in the Room and called immediately. The staff responded promptly, and the item arrived the next day with careful packaging and a list of contents. It was very helpful. The staff who answered the phone were also kind, which I greatly appreciated.

  • The breakfast and amenities were exceptional.

    The environment is good, and the amenities and breakfast are very satisfying. I was particularly impressed that the Starbucks coffee in the Room was the same as that in a Hotel in Paris, France.
