missing robes noisy kids
the lack of attention to detail was a bummer. i noticed the absence of robes and slippers in the room. Those little touches matter. the enoteca wine tasting was closed. I was looking forward to that. plus, our dinner reservation was a mess. Too many families and noisy kids. it was like eating in a school cafeteria, not a fancy place. i ended up going into town for dinner instead.

The staff was friendly and very professional. i liked returning and hearing a staff member say, "welcome back! " a staff member noticed my son's water bottle and suggested he refill it at the water fountain. petit fours were in our room, with two truffles in the kids' room. These details.
