United States of AmericaYou will love padding down the hall in your slippers and robe to your morning coffee without the elevator trip! Such a nice luxury. We went looking for ice and found someone to help right around the corner who brought ice plus glasses, and other essentials with a smile. The room was so lovely, a design marvel of accents, symmetry, and comfort. The whole place has well appointed event spaces, beautiful color schemes, lovely plant vibes, and indoor/outdoor living. It doesn't get much better.
