1. -Before we left, I read a reivew warning to not open the mini bar because it is censored and you will be charged for using it.

2. Frighteningly, someone who had an access to the room could have emptied the mini bar, stealing any items (bathrobes, TV, and so on), etc. And I could end up being responsible for thousand dollars for these missing items without any means to prove otherwise.

3. Don't touch any of the mini bar items, however, the hotel will charge you the instant they are picked up.

7. $52 a night to park, read very carefully about the room service charges,swimming pool and internet charge in your room, and of course the mini bar.

8. For the location and comfort of the new rooms, this is the perfect hotel, however come armed with your credit card as they appear to be funding the refurbishment through room service and mini bar charges, not to mention the room rates.

"Nice refurbishment but bring your credit card! " Read full review on TripAdvisor 5/3/2009 Vote

9. Mini bar prices and all restaurants in hotel are very expensive.
