It was a nice hotel but charging a resort fee of $40 a day plus $70 per night for valet parking is a little ridiculous. The restaurant was also way overpriced for what it was. Fun atmosphere all around though.

Beautiful property, great aesthetic. Restaurant is amazing. Small pool with a lengthy wait list (waited 2 hours to get a lounge chair). Asked for tea and a kettle, waited for an hour for a kettle and got a phone call in the morning asked when we needed the kettle. For how much we paid, didn’t live up to the hype.
