1. The spa was nice perhaps a little remodel but nothing outstanding, gym was new and clean, bathroom was nice a little cramped in locker area.

"The massage by Tom at spa was amazing. The front desk can use an attitude adjustment. " Read full review on TripAdvisor 3/28/2012 Vote

2. The gym is the perfect size for a long weekend - not too small that you are on top of other guests, and pretty well equipped.

"Majestic architecture, unsupported by Ritz experience " Read full review on TripAdvisor 2/12/2012 Vote

7. Also, as other travelers have described, the gym does not befit a putative five-star property.

8. Anything beyond these three elements--a pool, bars, gym, number of cable channels--are extras.

9. After doing so, I wanted to ask the front desk if they were finished with the update, as the gym I saw was not only disorganized and looked like it needed to be cleaned, but it had the most bare-bones and basic equipment typical of even your 2 and 3 star hotels.

10. No fitness enthusiast will get much out of that gym (Bally's, however, is about two blocks away).
