"Altogether the whole hotel is impressive. The only thing that concerns me was the drapes in my room. I am very sensitive to dust and smell....the drapes in my room smells dusty and it smells like it has not been washed/changed. I ended up sneezing furiously and thank God I brought with me my antihistamine ..."
