Target clientele's probably business people, especially considering the ridiculous cost for internet probably paid for by companies - luckily just across the road was the 900 Shops and complimentary wifi.

Of course for $63 our room overlooked the air conditioning units here as well but we had a very comfortable king bed, huge plasma tv, wonderfully decorated room, free breakfast, free
wireless
and a great location.

I was there because of a conference my partner was attending, but for the same money I probably would stay somewhere less 'old flashy' and more substance, such as a place with a good gym or
wireless
internet in the rooms.

Internet usage in the room is only by ethernet cord - there is no
wireless
in the rooms; however, the internet speed was fast which is usually not expected in a hotel.

No
wireless
Internet in the rooms, there is only a hard wired connection and in this day and age where folks are increasingly on the move with smartphones and tablets, not offering wifi is inexcusable.
