The location is obviously ideal. Park access is lovely. Concierge Joy is very nice. The Bartender in Jade was more concentrated on chatting with friends at the end of the bar. Our cocktails were inexplicably tasteless, watered down & lukewarm. When the bill came it was over 40.00 for two watery lukewarm drinks. It would have made us angry if we had to pay for them, but as it turned out our Expedia reservation credited them back to us at the end of the stay as part of the VIP thing. I've no idea what else the VIP thing might have included, didnt realize I booked it. We didn't return to that bar. Saw a doorman as we checked in, then not never again until 3 days later when we left. A hotel boasting 5 stars ought to be able to manage a cheerful face at the entrance to assist with cabs, etc. We are not snobs, can open our own doors, but would occasionally like assistance or to be greeted with a smile when entering the hotel. Didnt happen. Nonexistent. Needed to speak with the front desk from our room....called 4 times and couldn't get anybody to answer. Got disconnected twice. Eventually got connected to the manager who was very nice. Room was neat, tidy. Comfortable bed. Bummed about the disconnect we felt from the staff throughout our stay. Not rude, just disinterested in us. A small thing-a coffee maker of some sort in the room is always welcome for first cup. A simple french press, maybe? The amenities in the bathroom are Aesop, my favorite.
