Everything was good except for the garage controlled by a mechanical robot. One day I came down to get my car and the garage was being worked on and there was no communication from the property.

The night front desk staffer. I had lost my debit card but she patiently spent 20 minutes helping me brainstorm a solution. - (We ended up waking my adult son and using his card to cover the security deposit.)

VERY small room. Beautiful hotel but everything was so small, could barely get out stroller through the door.

I would definitely have given it five stars only the morning we were there, loud construction, drilling, banging near our room. We had to work downstairs in common area. We were notified of it at check in, but still affected our experience. Otherwise, everything about the hotel was awesome!
