I will start by saying that I really wanted to like this hotel. The property itself is lovely and quite nice, but there are some major operational issues to iron out. First, housekeeping. They were on our floor as we visibly exited but for some reason never refreshed our room. Returning a few hours later and seeing this, we called the front desk to request Housekeeping to come by the room. After returning again several hours later, housekeeping still hadn’t come to the room. Ultimately, a tired-looking staff member knocked on the door and just handed me a stack of linens. Second, the restaurant.

Room was smaller than it looked in pictures. Staff at Pasque was a bit rude and had an air of superiority...for what reason, not sure? At checkout valet left our car "around the corner" so we had to haul our luggage about 1/2 a block to our car1
