A superb hotel with an excellent dinner and breakfast — this hotel truly deserves all 5 stars. The parking was great, and my superior room was magnificent: huge, spotless, with its own walk-in closet, bathtub, shower, and the most amazing pillows. I have never experienced such soft pillows anywhere ...

It was great to be able to have a shower while I waited between two long flights but I really wanted to check in to the hotel to SLEEP and that wasn’t possible because the walls are sooo thin and there was sooo much noise.
