Staff was courteous! Amenities and travel access are excellent! Unfortunately, there has been a constant theme of insufficient cleaning in our rooms. Subpar bathroom cleaning, shower drainage issues…along with dirty linens and at this visit..hair on shower walls and floors. All issues are always addressed, but this hotel is too lovely to have mediocre cleaning in the rooms.
