It was fine. They need to pay attention to details (no soap in the bathroom, no cups for coffee). We tried to eat at the CBQ restaurant but the guy working did not seem happy to have customers. And he did not know how to make drinks. (Ice in a mimosa???). The room was comfortable and had a wonderful view.
