We went for the Christmas festival of Lights. I needed connecting rooms as we had our grandchildren. They upgraded us to a huge suite with a living room for a way below market price. Went the extra mile to reimburse my festival tickets and repurchase with discount for staying at the hotel. Great customer service!
