Although hotel is under renovation, efforts were made to minimize discomfort to guests. Staff was efficient and courteous. Waiter in the dining room was particularly attentive ( I apologize for not remembering his name - he worked the dinner on 10/26), food was excellent both at dinner and breakfast. Nicholas, the concierge, was very professional, friendly but respectful, a real asset to the hotel. Only negative were the slow elevators, of which there were only 2 and lack of good signage to find the fitness center.
