Lovely stay, as usual. The breakfast service is always a bit hit or miss, and this is something that could be improved. Front desk staff are incredible.

This hotel is gorgeous with fun bars and in a great area. I docked points because our electricity kept going out every time I would use their hairdryer or steamer and then we would need to call the front desk for assistance. Happened 3x times. Would still recommend.
