the staff quickly greeted me upon arrival to the courtyard. i received a room with an upgrade, near the elevators. candy jars were available on each floor, refilled daily.
the room seemed small despite its high ceilings. there was very little space for luggage. the bathroom had a high step over the edge of the bathtub.

The staff was helpful and made everything run smoothly. i especially appreciated the front door car service provided. It was convenient. location is great. Main tourist attractions are easily accessible. also the bar is cozy. lush. and has the perfect vibe.
I paid a high price! but the overall vibe felt a bit stuffy and borderline arrogant. It took away from the warmth i was hoping for. that was a real shame.
