Were you (or for multi-stayers are you generally) happy with the hotel/stay?
OK
Which room did you book and which upgrade did you receive?
Booked King Deluxe for Super Sunday, initially given a Sky Corner. I asked for a suite but they were all sold and then I asked for a King Business which I like better than a Sky Corner and was given that on the 33rd floor.
The King Business has a good amount of space and a long window wall facing east in my case. And it has a large walk in shower.
How is the exec. lounge?
None.
I had such a terrible breakfast the last time here I didn't even bother trying it this time. And I hosted a small Super Bowl party so wasn't hungry at all the following morning.
Did you receive a welcome gift?
Nothing.
How was the minibar?
The minibar is relatively poor in quality. I had a bottle of white which which wasn't great. Beer is only Heineken and Amstel light.
What was good and what was bad?
-Good
-- Huge TV for watching the game.
-- Price wasn't bad for this market.
-- The view
-Bad
-- Nothing too bad, but nothing great either.
-- The Stinger Bar is still closed. Even on Super Sunday! But Smiths across the street has reopened so that's a plus.
-- The amount of points that posted was $50 less than what I paid for the base room rate. So I have to call IHG to correct.
Value for $ or Priority Club Points?
Yes as long as RA's never have to pay the amenity fee.
Would you return?
Probably
