Great location but the room was average for average price, but not good for the $300 per night tab. AC was only halfway functional and very noisy. If you closed the privacy curtians the AC was blocked behind them. Someone went for chik vs functional so we were up with the sun or sweating. Bathroom was very small and unimpressive with a tub shower.
