Very nice room. Clean and well-appointed. We had a toilet issue at 11:00 at night, but they immediately sent up a maintenance person who repaired it in just a few minutes. The room service food was fantastic. Better than anticipated. I would go back to the cafe just for the food. Overall a wonderful experience.
