Generally we lined the hotel. Room was nice, staff were terrific. The only issues were the room not entirely clean as toys were left behind in the floor and our second night there was a lot of noise from all the people partying - hard to sleep for an early flight.

The hotel is just OK. It's pretty on the outside. It's very old. Neither the heating nor the cooling worked right even though they came up and "fixed" it. The clock was broken when we got there - no big deal, but, they were supposed to replace it and never did the whole time we were there. The bed was very comfortable though. Everything is extremely expensive.
