Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
Incredibly disappointed. Old, dated, poor amenities. Yet called a luxury penthouse. Ridiculous. Gross, old furnishings, flooring, cabinetry. Did not have staff to clean rooms daily and did not leave enough towels etc. Just under 2K for 3 disappointing nights. Would not recommend in any way at all.
