1. Good value for the price with one exception: there is no self-parking; valet only, $30 / night when we were there, so add that in to your cost planning if you're driving.

2. The price would be reasonable at $150 a night but I would not recommend this hotel until it is renovated.

5. We missed the room block rate at the Marriott, and the price went up considerably, so after reading the reviews, I somewhat hesitantly booked at the Lancaster via a discount booking website.
