Originally booked a three bedroom apartment and was upgraded to a three bedroom penthouse. Stayed there for almost three weeks and each day was amazing. The front staff were amazing, restaurant staff were excellent, the chefs for breakfast and dinner were exceptional. Our housekeeper Yvonne was wonderful and my kids loved her. The building exceeded my expectations and I highly recommend
