My other thoughts it’s a sexy hotel with a beautiful hard product however I hate dark bathrooms with poor lighting
and the W lighting is a fail unless you go to have sex and want an erotic vibe
I think they could have taken it to the next level if they dropped some of the theatrical night club flair
That said as my Ozzie friends like to say it’s Over the top
and despite the service snafus
I still think about the memorable breakast as one of the top 3 breakfast standouts of my month away
Reminds me of how Hyatt used to be back in the day exciting to dine with
You might already know this, but you can brighten the bathroom lights by holding down the touch button - it will turn from the dim default to something more practical.
