“I noticed reports of slow bar service and ants at the pool, contrasting sharply with the building's beauty; tales of disappearing receptionists and stolen chargers also give pause. The Forbes Five-Star restaurant and spa get high marks, yet upkeep and service seem inconsistent. It's a property with acknowledged potential that, from what I've gathered, sometimes struggles to deliver.”
