Recently their standard room has sometimes been priced at a premium to the Club Floor at the RC. IMHO, the RC is much better. I agree with others here that there are some service deficiencies at the RC that would put it a cut below the MO (and I assume FSM and Pen) in service. However, I would put the GH at or a cut below that. The standard room at the RC is much bigger than the GH and you are assured of a decent view. I also think the Club Lounge is much nicer at the RC and, at least in my experience, is rarely crowded.
Excellent analysis.
