WONDERFUL. Our connecting flight got gummed up due to bad weather in Chicago, and we were rebooked onto a later flight that arrived right around the time Alex's published check in time ended. He immediately reassured me (from Germany!) that his associates would be there to meet us - no problem.
Bought a bottle of duty free tequila to enjoy on that lovely, lavender-ringed patio. What a special place.
I would go back in a heartbeat. We felt really lucky to have been guests here.
(Careful if you get vertigo - that spiral staircase to the roof is part of what makes it so neat.)
