Each room is named after a star who stayed in that room at some time. Be sure to take a few moments to speak with the docent in the lobby in the evenings for many more interesting accounts about the stars and hotel. All of the staff were very accommodating and pleasant. Rooms were clean and acceptable. A nice stay altogether."

The red a little more spicy than the green but were both tasty... Service was great, atmosphere was amazing and everything the place had to offer was beautiful. Awesome gift shop with suvanieers to take home with you.."
