Don’t go there if it’s raining and you’re not a duck.
Pros:

Great location for our needs.

Cons:

It was a wet night with minimal parking near the reception. We foolishly parked underground thinking that would keep us out of the rain. It didn’t and we had a longer walk in the rain. We got to the reception, wet, and read the sign that said if doors are locked go to the bar. Back in the rain to the bar, where we were told we had to go back to the reception and the manager would meet us there. Back in the rain, now for the 3rd time, to go back to reception to be let in. There is no shelter between bar and reception.
