Stayed here very recently in the post covid/corona virus era.

Some notes:

-Was upgraded from a standard room to a junior suite without asking. I am Titanium.
-Windows CAN be opened in the hotel, which is nice.
-The only things different I noticed different in the room was that the remote control, the pen, the bathrobe, and the towels were all wrapped in plastic. That's it. Everything else in the room looked as always.


Food & Drink

-Breakfast is now being served in the restaurant again. The restaurant is open most of the day, and the staff take your temperature when you arrive and make you fill out a small card with your name and room number (this happens if you go there for lunch or dinner as well). You can also have breakfast as room service I think.

You can order freshly made warm eggs from a menu (no extra charge if your breakfast is included in the room rate) and cold items are at a "buffet" where each item is in a plastic box. Think single pieces of ham or cheese each a small seperate plastic box, or fruit salad each already in a seperate closed cup, or pieces of bread individually wrapped in a small paper bag. There is no "loose" food or tongs/serving spoons at the buffet. Cosidering that many hotels are just giving take away bags, I was pleased with what was there.

-The bar is closed

Lounge:

-The lounge is closed. Hotel offered me a 20% discount for dinner at the restaurant. No other discounts or coupons/vouchers. They do not know when the lounge will re-open.

Conclusion:

I enjoyed my stay despite the closed lounge and virus restrictions.
This hotel has lots of large spaces and very wide hallways....perfect for social distancing.
