2. What you don't get -- a fancy bar with overpriced drinks (but plenty are within a block or two); great food (though there is adequate room service); a touristy gift shop (but there's a 24 hour drugstore nearby for essentials); AND a $400/night bill.

10. My finance people were able to sort out the bill within 24 hours but the charges to my card were not returned until 5 days later, AND an overlimit charge had been put on my card AND the exchange rate had changed and i lost $3.50 which the hotel refused to reimburse me for.
