Review summary

Staff and other guests were friendly and warm and had a great time. Would have more hooks in the room to hang things and the lights above not in the center of ceiling so someone could sleep while the other person read etc. I decided that traditional dining was not a good choice...liked meeting new people each night...however liked the early seating very much...so I could go to early shows etc.
