Robert, Nov 2023
They charged us twice. We are now in a protracted effort to fix their error. It would be nicer if they could fix their errors. But they can’t. And the front desk clerk has a black eye. Nice place, but…TROUBLING!

Pros (+) The room was nice, views great. Would have preferred both of us to be able to sit in the slider to get the view of the storm.
