TV didn't work, no room in fridge other than mini bars items, extra fees for fast internet, no extra blankets provided upon request. Though they did comp parking upon complaint. Felt surrounded by upsale opportunities, despite high price. Lost of a bit of its magic atmosphere compared to last visit

Stayed for one day, location is perfect. Staff is very friendly and professional, you will have issue with parking if you would like to do self parking, parking is 5 minutes walk from the property. I got valet parking which cost you 60$ Per day . If you don’t need car after it’s parked then do self parking

Air conditioner was just by the bed and too noisy. We could not sleep all night, next night we had to turn it off and open the window instead to get some cool fresh air. The room was dark with a small window.

Great property. You woiuld expect more friendliness for the money you pay. No energy or excitement. Just a beautiful place to sleep. It may be because you booked through expedia. They make it a point to tell you you cannot collect their Accor affinity points because you booked through Expedia. Nice place to experience once. ONCE.
