Please read entire review. This hotel should get 5 stars as it has many awesome things going for it, except one big thing. 5 stars Service - All of the staff are friendly, accommodating - extremely exceptional. Rooms - Clean and spacious Hotel - the hotel itself is great, the ambiance, the dining options that are in the hotel are great, the amenities (such as the swimming pool and the gym) are exceptional, the spa is worth the money as well. 1 star I was not able to sleep both nights I was staying here. The room only has heating and at night the room was too warm. Their option for me was to open the door - which is ok, but at night it is too noisy and the air quality isn't that great starting in the afternoon late at night. If the room just had air conditioning, this hotel would get 5 stars.
