The whole lobby area smelled like perfume. I think that is a thing with higher end hotels. Check-in staff very friendly. Clean room, nice amenities. Refrigerator in room. Pool top roof deck is tiny. No bar up there. Valet parking is expensive, but it was nice to call ahead and have my car ready. Good value for money paid.
