Review summary

we loved our balconey, room was very spacious. we wish they had a few more "active" bars, the Piano Bar was great each night, he was very talented and entertaining. Dinner each night was always great, and service was above reproach. We liked the idea of the wine and cocktail cards because you didn't have to give you room each time you wanted a drink. we tried the Pinnacle Grill, the food was great,but we were very disappointed when we dined there and the wine stewart seemed offended that we were using the wine card there rather than purchasing a bottle of their wine, fortunately the maitre d handled it and we had another wine stewart for our table and the rest of our night was fine. we did not like the long, slow lines at the breakfast buffet, lunch didn't seem as bad for some reason.
