attentive staff good choice drink selection note request hour hold payment account
the staff was attentive and friendly, which i like very much. the breakfast, lunch, and dinner menus had a good choice of foods, that was great. the drinks selection included tea, coffee, beer, wine, and cocktails, which pleased me.
i booked a surprise trip and asked for a bottle of wine and a note in the room, that never happen. i tried to call the hotel, but i was on hold for a full hour, this upset me. the payment for the wine has not yet reached my account, not good.

genuine care local insight valet parking craft beer
The staff displayed genuine care, especially at reception. their local insights and helpfulness stood out. i commend the valet parking. The concierge greeted me warmly and handled my car efficiently. the wig and gown restaurant served a nice tomahawk steak. It was a standout meal. craft beer options at the bar included the notable barking bishop. It pleased me.
The bathroom lacked a small shelf near the sink for toiletries. It was slightly inconvenient.
