If you are not in the tower but are placed in the 'classic' rooms, they are small and very utilitarian considering their high prices. The restaurants are excellent as is the location which is why we stay here.

We got there at a little before 6 PM, we were retired. We flew all day, we’re older and we just wanted to get into our room and relax. I asked where I could get some water, the young lady at the desk that checked us in, told me I could walk to the gym and go to the water fountain. I said I’m looking for a bottle of water, I asked her where their Gift Shop was. She said oh it’s closed and that was 10 to 6 in the evening, I asked where can I get some bottled water and she told me I had to go out of the hotel down the block to the donut shop to buy water. I was so upset it is not a cheap hotel and then after I went and bought water, I came back and shared my feelings with the evening manager and come to find out. They have water in the room, but it is seven dollars for a small bottle of water. When they brought our luggage to the run, I asked if we could please have a couple of extra luggage racks, and we never got them like never. They’re trying to be a luxury hotel and they are very far from it. Why when you’re paying almost $400 a night for a room, would you have to pay seven dollars for a small bottle of water, that’s ridiculous. We were there for two nights and when we checked out this morning, the desk clerk asked me what our state was and I told him and he said they hear that complaint all the time and have talked to management so management said that they would have to charge a resort fee in order not to charge for water. It’s absolutely ridiculous.
