Pros:
Friendly Staff
Room 311 is the best Suite I have seen in Barrio Amon so far.
Room 312 is a very good size suite

Cons;

No bottled water mostly throughout my stay
Towel Shortages
Commuter train a real PIA during the week.

Bottom Line-Back to the HLH. I had to stay at the Amistad this time because my Wing needed to fly under the radar!

Thanks for the review -

I would like to add some comments:

Bottled water - easy to puchase.
Towels - very easy to ask for more towels, the staff are very helpful.
The trains - ear plugs work well, I will even add an eye mask works great to for the rooms with sunlight in the mornings.

Question - RM 312, what is your full review of this room?

thanks,

USA41

i made a couple of comments on 312 in the other amistad thread but i would take 311 over 312 everytime. full kitchen if you like to cook or can find a girl that does. the beds are the most comfortable i have found although i have never stayed in the new mansion rooms at SL. those are supposed to be really nice as well.
311 has one and half bathes and i always appreciate that since destroying a head right next to the bed is not great for many reasons. big lounge area as well as a giant bar that circles the kitchen.
train is a def nuisance but if earplugs work for you it should be np.
