9.2/10 Wonderful! (4,280 reviews)
"This Hotel is quite nice with nice sized rooms and an extremely convenient location. The staff is very nice and very helpful. The only downside, is poor water pressure, at least on the 6th floor. Beds are very comfortable. The O Bar is very nice with entertainment until 12 am nightly."
