A little bit of parking space anxiety, a slow draining sink(they might not have known of) and basic cable that leaves a bit to be desired, it does not take away from the breathtaking views, the clean rooms and the staff that was more friendly and courteous than most people that work for tips. I am very much looking forward to booking another stay here.
