I had a mixed experience at The Aster during my stay. While the room was spacious and beautifully decorated, and the dining experience at the restaurant was excellent, the service left much to be desired. The staff seemed disengaged, and I had an unpleasant experience with the valet service that added unnecessary stress to my trip.
