The staff was very good, the hotel itself was kind of run down with holes in the hallways and they offer a jacuzzi but there isnt one there and the pool room was cold so dont plan to swim unless you either catch a cold or you like the coller room, the nightclub bartenders were great a little heavy handed but good, the shogun restaurant in the hotel was very good service and very good food.
