Our rooms and beds were comfortable and lovely. We had a middle of the night arrival, and the staff member could not connect our Marriott loyalty number to our folio but offered lounge passes as service recovery. Dining option food service was a bit slow, but the staff were lovely. Being able to walk through the tunnels to get to The Egg was wonderful for an evening show.
