Construction above our room was loud and shook the walls. At 5:00 am our smoke detector started chirping. I went to the front desk and asked about it. He wasn’t able to resolve it, offered earplugs! 8:30 reported it again. They said they would fix it. Left for several hours and it was still chirping! Finally got it fixed at 11:30.

Breakfast was good, better from other hotels I've been to. Afternoon wine, cheese, and grapes were nice as well. Poolside room was small but bed was comfortable. Toilet takes awhile to flush, you have to wait for at least 10 mins. I hope they fix that.
