8.2/10 Very good! (1,023 reviews)
"Not worth $500 a night! The place is pretty old and dated. WiFi didn’t work in our room and it’s too expensive to have WiFi issues. We couldn’t get a Lyft or uber as a result. I highly recommend spending your money elsewhere. At the most, this place should be $200 a night."

9.6/10 Exceptional! (424 reviews)
"Unique, the snacks in the room are “complimentary “…sure, you’re paying for them in the long run, but it’s a totally different “feel” than places that put $5.00 bottles of water in the room. Staff extremely polite, attentive and helpful. Will stay again. Longer next time."
