On another stay here. Good hotel as always, but there are some under currents of change that may be disturbing. Not huge, but here they are:

- They switched from free booze in the club to pay per drink. This has been a bit over a year ago.

- Upon check in, we were told that they had actually shut the club down completely around the first of the year but re-opened it after much consternation from frequent guests.

- Slippers are gone after having been consistent, then moved to unpackaged apparently recycled ones.

- Towels aren't as new / nice.

- Pets have gone from free to $25 per night.

- Food in the a.m. has been cut from around five hots to three. Juices reduced along with breads.

All in all, still a nice hotel but they are obviously looking to boost profits by cutting expenses. Staying here is not cheap any time of the week/year and you're not going to stay here if you have meetings in downtown Denver.

The staff is still superb...great people here.
