Not sure were these crazy reviews came from but I enjoyed my stay.The breakfast bar was above average. The room was worth more than $100 a night. I would stay again without thought. If you are looking for valet to park your Bugatti Tourbillion, you need to get off this sight, call your assistant and have them book you at the Ritz.

Slow check-in (15 mins to get my room) was into a good start, though receptionist was pleasant and apologised for long delay. Slightly tired looking hotel but comfortable and had nice buffet breakfast. Nice downtime location . Taxi drivers all seem to know where it is which helps.
