6. (which was mediocre, by the way, and certainly not worth the long, expensive taxi ride) All in all, the hotel was very nice, loved the breakfast and snacks, the room was comfortable (although the bed wasn't great--the mattress was very hard) but they really need a concierge instead of having their front desk personnel assume this duty.
