    What a great New Year's experience! The service from the staff was top-notch, they definitely know how to make their guests feel welcome. The food was delicious and the drinks were flowing all night long. The location was perfect, situated close to all of the attractions we wanted to visit. We were also pleasantly surprised by the free shuttle service to nearby locations. The atmosphere was lively and we couldn't have asked for a better view of the fireworks.

    Our only disappointment was the noise level at night. As there were many parties happening, the sound carried up to our room and made it difficult to sleep.
