"All was very nice. Valets were so kind and helpful. Only thing I was not happy about was that I had no microwave in my room and the refrigerator was not usable because it never not cold enough to use although set to high. I will stay here again and just make sure I get a frig that works along with a microwave. Enjoyed my stay very much!"
