In our first room the sliding glass door couldn’t lock. The front desk said they would fix it. When we came back that night it wasn’t fix. Not only could I not sleep comfortably about it not locking….. the band and DJ were playing next to our room. It felt like they were playing right outside our door. So of course we asked to move to another room. Better room all around until night time, Now we could hear the music from the Oyster bar nightclub. Friday night the music was playing at 4am. Sorry to say but we will not be staying there again. Unfortunately for us the rooms/hotel were cleaned.
