My corporate WiFi never works in this facility, always works at the Grand Pacific. Really limited tv channels. Would be nice to get CNBC? They used to have water in the lobby and they would put fruit (lemon/ lime) in the container, nice touch …. Just plain water now…. And really miss the steam room, sauna not the same. I keep coming back, but it’s not as good as a couple years ago. Thanks

Just ok, I won't go back. One example - The walls are very thin. For example, I was woken up by a snoring guest in a different room. I brought it to the attention of the concierge / front desk (as well as the fact that I had been woken up by the snoring at 3am and it was so loud and persistent I couldn't get back to sleep) and they agreed that was brutal but offered no alternatives or help.
