Great price and the room was wonderful. Everything about it was great. The desk staff was very helpful and even retrieved me butter from thelr kitchen so I could cook my steak. The bed was awesome, one of the best mattresses I've slept on at a hotel. It takes a lot to impress me and I was impressed.
