Your statement might be correct. However, I wanted to make the point that some of the info in postings above is not true, saying that there are only 1-2 rooms at the hotel that have a good ocean view. Maybe you need to step on the balcony to have the ocean view, in my mind that's ok. The balcony is part of the room too.
Just two things I forgot that I think are important:
- We wanted to print out two emails at the business center. Even if you already paid for Internet access at your room, or got it free as a platinum... The internet at the business center costs $7 for 10 minutes. Printing is extra. They are completely out of their heads!!!
- We had absolutely no traffic noise from the street, but although we were 4-5 rooms away from the elevator we heard it going all the time. The building is very noise sensitive and you shouldn't expect to have a very quiet room.
