7. The selection of TV channels made me think it was focused on businessmen given the limited selection of general channel and then the large selection of US sports channels All this was not terrible and the room was fine but it suffered in comparison to a NYC hotel and to a Mariott that my friend stayed in in Boston that I saw and was much cheaper - I felt it was quite pricey for what you actually got.
