Fairmont has lost it’s touch
Very disappointed. We experienced delays and issues from the moment we arrived. There was only one valet member once we arrived and at least 20 cars that needed assistance. Once we checked in, we were surprised to see plenty of dust, stains, dirt and a broken shower. We werent able to enjoy it and quickly left.
