I would rate this higher, as everything was reasonably nice, but our hair dryer was missing and we couldn't get a replacement. It sounds like a small issue, but my wife needed this just before checkout, and we were told one was being brought up. We saw nothing for 30 minutes, called again, and waited another 30 minutes with none coming. It was cold out and my wife had to travel with wet hair, which made the rest of the day's travel a bit miserable.
