The one bedroom corner suite was great, as advertised. The service was not good, particularly at the street level bar/lounge area. They were understaffed and overpromised what they could do in regard to seating (they dont take reservations). We cancelled a rez at a different restaurant and could not get it reinstated, so we were stuck. Also we had to call multiple times to get an extra blanket sent to room. Maybe they just had a bad day, but it kind or ruined our experience.
