1. But having said that, there are plenty of restaurants and bars within a stone's throw to avoid this unfortunate hotel management miscalculation of their guests tolerance to overpricing.

2. The restaurant is typically overpriced (with great service and food - except for the French Toast) but there is a breakfast/lunch place on the other end of the block and there is a small grocery store just around the corner.

6. Pros: Great location, great views, very nice rooms, decent staffCons: In my opinion WAY overpriced, as I paid about $200 for one night, and the elevators are VERY slow.

7. Didn`t eat at the restaurant but did have room-service breakfast which was a little overpriced but tasty, attractively presented and delivered on time to the minute.
