The entrance impressed me immediately. It is really grand! i was delighted to find balloons, rose petals, and a personalized message on the bathroom mirror in our superior king room. This decoration was for my husband's birthday! champagne on ice and a birthday cake were also included. It was all so thoughtful. the afternoon tea had such fresh ingredients. It tasted AMAZING!!!
The air conditioning was a little noisy at times. It could be updated.
