The room itself is a 5. The view is spectacular as soon as you walk in, BUT the cost for everything is ridiculously over priced. They charge you 6 times what a little shot liquor bottle would cost in the store. So, we didn't have one. Then they charge you $40 per day if you remove anything from the fridge to put what you brought in with you in there. That's if they are being nice. They tried to charge us for everything that was removed from the fridge, not once but every day that we were there. I ask, how can I consume one thing 3 days in a row? By the way, they fill that little fridge so full that you don't have a choice but to take something out if you want to use it. (On the last night, we did see the sticker on the fridge that said if you need a fridge to call housekeeping.) They charge $9 each for the in room coffee. So we went downstairs to the lobby to Starbucks for better coffee at regular prices. One night I made the mistake of having a couple of drinks at the bar and getting a bite to eat. I had the mini tacos, which were very good, but literally just a bite. I had to order a minimum of two and they were $6 or $7 dollars each. Those bites did nothing for me, so I ordered a sushi roll of which they serve about half of what a restaurant would serve. My tab, about $86 with the automatic gratuity included.
I loved the balcony and the views, but the only way I would return is if they paid me to do so. (Excuse any typos.)
