Hotel was amazing, the rooms were so beautiful. The only critique is the bathrooms in the room. There is only a pedestal sink so nowhere to put anything and the shower had a curtain around the whole tub and it would stick to you when showering and there was nowhere in the tub to put anything not an ideal shower situation would be nice if the bathrooms were a little more updated. But other than that the whole experience at the hotel was amazing!
