- "Rooftop wine patio " - "The staff was great!!!!" - "Upscale feeling" - "the view" - "The only thing I didn't like was the big window in the shower into the bedroom. It took away any privacy (fortunately I was with my husband) but it was still kind of weird! It also meant that when you turned the light on in the bathroom in the middle of the night, you were also turning on a bright light in the bedroom. There should at least be a curtain if the window is necessary. But the staff went above and beyond to make the staff nice. Would definitely recommend this hotel"
