Above the Ritz standards. Holiday Inn os better.
Front desk provide is a room w balcony w a view to the ceiling of the entrance. This was UGLY! I had to request another room while everything was closed due to Debby the tropical storm. Very, very bad behaviour from Alex the manager of the restaurant, I felt like he was rejecting me as animal. I have spoken to Joshua and that he was going to speak w Simon, the mgr of restaurants. Bad bad experience definitely they have not the standard of what Ritz represents. I am a 25 Marriott member.
