Pros:

ロケーション、立地は最高でした!!ライブ目的の滞在でしたが、スタジアムまで徒歩圏内で安全に過ごすことが出来ました。

Cons:

金額の割にはサービスの充実を感じませんでした。せめてTVはNetflixやYouTubeを導入して欲しいです。館内施設は課金ばかりで、朝食もビュッフェスタイルを期待していたので、日本人には少し物足りないです。

Nice for splurging
Pros:

The view of the Harbor was amazing. Facilities and amenities were great

Cons:

Was not able to call the front desk (no response/broken phone) or arrange for room service. Each request required a trip down to the vestibule. Wound up ordering delivery which apparently was the thing as there was a staged area for the various delivery services
