1. Spa: Didnt use it but the area always smells nice and the staff working the area was very nice.

"Ritz service but dated property " Read full review on TripAdvisor 3/12/2012 Vote

2. The room contained a nicely stocked mini-fridge and Bvlgari toiletries (strongly scented and more feminine in smell).

"Lackluster stay " Read full review on TripAdvisor 7/3/2011 Vote

3. Small room, stuffy, lame, smells and looks like your grandmas house.

4. +Valet service is also a disappointment--they only seem to be available when you are checking in or leaving (they must smell the guaranteed tips).

5. From the moment that we stepped into the lobby, the smell of wonderous holiday was steeped in the place.

8. From the greetings as we entered the grand lobby area (the smell of fresh flowers is truly wonderful), to the beautiful room, we truly enjoyed the experience.

"Wonderful oasis in bustling city! " Read full review on TripAdvisor 5/29/2007 Vote

9. Beautiful entrance but once you go to your floor beware of the cigarette butt by people whom put it out on the tables and the smoking smell.
