(Sorry, I had posted this in the PH thread, first.)

I had a quite nice stay here last week.

I used a leftover Diamond upgrade cert from last year, and got a nice suite on the 26th floor.

Very good club staff, especially the Thai lady. The two hot items every night were a little too similar some nights, but they had enough variety that it wasn't bad.

The worst part of arriving at the hotel was with a super rude cabbie. It's a shame, as it really negatively effects how you think about a city.

Two of the smallest apples I've ever seen on an amenity plate were in the room. I know there are bigger ones, I've seen them in the local Cole's. Seems a bit of a shame.

Had a nice breakfast downstairs too. I believe you can get the continental downstairs taken off your bill, or pay $20 for the full breakfast, which is very tasty. I just wish they had an egg menu in the lounge.

The only other problems is that the hallways seem a conduit for noise. I had some very loud talking outside my door. I opened it up, and found that the people talking were far down the hall.

Late checkout at 4pm, was standard.
