I staryed at this hotel last week and it us a dump with the exception of the renovate rooms. I as a Plat got a new room my colleague as a gold got one of the worst hotel rooms I have seen in a long time.
All the public areas need some serious updating which is happening slowly. The new room was very nice apart from it was at the back of the hotel and the noise at 5 in the morning was very bad. A annoying problems also was that the new LCD TV was so dam quiet even with the volume on max I could not hear it.
Overall great location but that is about it.
