Stayed there for one night in 2006, don't think it is worth the money.

The hotel is undoubtedly luxurious, but it is also tasteless. The whole decor looks and feels so much like a harem, I almost expect young girls to walk out the closet and start dancing naked.

This hotel to me is the epitome of flash over style. Gold plated faucets, gold leaf crown moldings, gold rimmed TV casings, lion statutes, psychedellic patterns and colors, mirrors over the bed, rotating beds, couple's jacuzzi tub with mood lighting.... you get the idea, it is a boy's fantasy make out spot.

The Rolls Royce limo is nice though.
