    A high altitude, open air venue makes it difficult to have a cozy and relaxing setting. There’s a lot of wind and it gets cold. The food we ordered has to come up from the Aurum Restaurant on the 7th floor, which means that everything takes long to arrive. Then when the food does arrive, it’s already getting cold. The portions are tiny and the price tags are exorbitant. The venue itself lacks any kind of attraction, aside from the views, and without any references of what you’re looking at, it’s all quite mundane and boring. Although the service was 5 stars, it wasn’t a great experience and we won’t be going back.
