fantastic short stay!

room upgradedinner deliveryutensil absence
we had a brief, one-night visit and received an unexpected upgrade to a junior suite. the room proved so inviting that we opted to have our dinner brought up, and it came via a very helpful young man. the food was AMAZING!!! we ended up ordering dessert, too.
i noticed the absence of plates and cutlery in my room which slightly affected convenience. a glass for mouthwash in the bathroom would definitely enhance comfort. adding these small items would greatly improve the stay.
