I had a cozy room given to me before the official check-in time; it was quite small but not an issue, maybe just 'Europe'. The service was great with very attentive and friendly staff. The location is awesome but less pleasant at night. The dining had plenty of choice and was pretty good. The facilities were top-notch.
