Staff were amazing. Opportunities for improvement: - Hire more staff during busy periods as there were lack of staff at cuisine restaurant. -Improve the breakfast selection. - Don’t overcook the Lobster and meats during New Year Eve Gala.

Rooms were good, spacious, great bed. Breakfast was a mess, and the staff was unorganized. There were plates missing, food trays were empty, no waiter service. I understand the hotel was fully booked but a 5 star hotel needs to know how to handle this.
