"Really cool place, especially all the common areas, like den, study, gallery and pool with amazing views. Unfortunately, we were there during a heat wave, and while the common areas were air conditioned, the room was not. Thank God for the fan provided, but it was still a lil rough.

Overall was ok, but AC did nothing
"Overall good hotel but the AC was next to worthless. My friend in a different room said the same. It barely blew air and was not really cold. Also, housekeeping entered the room twice while I was sleeping after an early check in. I’d still stay there again though as long as it isn’t hot weather"
