Overall, not bad.

Our room (310) was extremely cold upon arrival so we turned the heat up and went out to dinner. Upon our return, the room was just as cold (probably 16-17c). My wife was very uncomfortable. Not ideal for a relaxing weekend away. Anyway, the next morning I did a little investigating and found the power switch behind a panel. Turned it off and on and maxed out the thermostat. Luckily, it worked, but took all day for the room to reach maybe 21-22c. Other than that, no real issues other than my normal sized Dodge Ram not was too tall for the parking garage. We had to park across the street in an outdoor unsupervised lot. I was very uneasy about that given all the break-ins and vehicle thefts.

Gentleman working the counter was absolutely wonderful. Room was clean and tidy. Balcony was very large and private. Parking is VERY tight for a truck. Frustratingly, there was a small SUV in the dedicated large vehicle parking but we made it work.
