Regular visitor. Love the hotel short of the outrageous prices . . . can no longer afford to stay in the preferable months. However, our suite was uncomfortably cold. The thermostat would only hold my set temperature for an hour, than revert back to a ridiculous setting for the time of year. Had to keep getting up or out of bed on the hour to reset. There were no blankets in the room. Otherwise, my favorite stay for decades.
