This is a business affair. Hotel chosen by employer. The idea of an in room kitchenette definitely saved us personal cask by not eating out all the time. We took a vote at the iffice yesterday and everyone voted to come here again. Oh and before I forget...ADIBA!! Super cool. Super sweet. They should clone her a few times so she will always be at the desk. Thank you all!
