Our room was located on the 26th floor! Beautiful view and everything was so comfortable! We were enamored with selecting the upgrade to Milliseme level which included a wonderful breakfast each morning. Also, that level included a fabulous cocktail hour from 5:30pm - 7:30pm. It was perfect after a long day of sightseeing! A couple of the days we were there we didn’t even have to buy food out! It was all provided between our breakfast and the cocktail hour!! What a treat!
