This is my favorite hotel I’ve ever stayed at! The staff was incredibly kind, the room was beautiful, and the breakfast was absolutely wonderful. I was initially unsure if the breakfast would be worth the price, but it definitely was! Gorgeous display, a huge variety of choices and different types of cuisines (Korean, American, Chinese, French…) I would definitely stay here again!

I was informed upon check-in that nearly every amenity (gym, pool, etc) was closed. The lobby feels “grand,” but the rooms will look and feel outmoded to anyone who has stayed in a hotel since 1990. The rooms feel especially old-fashioned. Water dripped from the ceiling of my room, leaving a wet spot on the carpet below. Good breakfast.
