The staff was excellent. However, very few of the outlets in our room (151) worked. This presented great difficulty in 1. A c-pap machine required for sleeping. We weren't able to use it, because the ourlets bedside didn't work. This could have resulted in health difficulties. 2. We could only charge phones in the bathroom because that was the only outlet that worked consistantly. In the restaurant, we waited for over an hour for food after we had ordered.
