I thought staff were a bit cold and not too welcoming. I did have to switch rooms for the weekend and had to pay top dollars for the extra two nights. I realize it is because I needed two weekend nights but there was no mid budget option. Loved the restaurant.

The ice machine didn't work on the floor and when I used my restroom there was like a rubberband that you would wear with braces that had some red on it? Could have been blood, but not sure. Otherwise, room was nice, good climate control for a comfortable temp and the staff at the front desk was very good.
