I booked this for my Anniversary. I checked several places to dine in the area, but we wanted to stay in. Door Dashed him a pizza and called to order room service - after 3 call backs from the front desk, I was advised I couldn't order room service as they were too busy and understaffed. My husbands food arrived and I legit had nothing for supper on my anniversary. I ate a cheese plate I picked up for the drive. It absolutely ruined the evening - we had to go find the liquor store to get drinks, because we couldn't order room service. How about tending to your guests and prioritize them over outside diners. I doubt we will be back!
