The hotel is a hotel of opposites, some excellent attributes and some not so great The front desk is 5 star, very responsive. They also text you asking if the room is ok, and if you need anything. For made service, when I had the come back later sign, they texted and asked if/when I wanted the room clean with times they could clean or if I needed clean towels. Valet service was also quick and easy The rooms and infrastructure, although updated still feels dated. My and most rooms open up to outside. The bathroom (in my room), is not heated. That is the heater blows heat in the main room does not blow heat in the bathroom so when getting out of the shower the floor and bathroom is cold. Also, the heat/thermostat in my room was not working. It was New Years Eve, and while they tried to fix it, the guy on call also called a supervisor and video called him to try to fix it a positive) it needed a new thermostat that could not be obtained to the next day. Maid service was above average, however one day they left my door open.

The property is great and the staff are friendly. The lack of coffee in the rooms and ice machines is bizarre for a hotel. The fact that the coffee shop doesn’t open until 7:00 is also perplexing. Believe it or not, many of your guests are up well before 7 and would like coffee without having to go off site.

The room was spotless and the hotel had a gorgeous old Hollywood style. The front desk gentleman that greeted us Berke (sorry if I miss pronounced your name) Was very kind and gave us some details about the hotel and was very courteous. We were just there for a night. But will definitely be coming back. In the morning I checked out and ordered some breakfast which was then brought to me by the pool. It was such a great stay! Thank you!
