empty mini bar salty steak
the location was acceptable.
I booked a 'privileged' suite. The mini bar was completely empty. i contacted reception and they said they would send housekeeping but this never happened. dinner arrived without the advertised sauce. The steak was so salty that i couldn't eat it. it seems i paid a lot for a premium room lacking basic amenities.
