Great hotel in great location. I did expect a bit more for the price though. Rooms were a bit dated. Was also promised complimentary glasses of Pinot at check in and waited and never got anything. Also went to dinner at the restaurant and they asked if we were celebrating anything. We were celebrating my daughters bday. I saw tables around me getting cakes for the birthday people but we never saw anything.
