Very expensive but it is deluxe. Right now the hotels big problem is the DJ bands playing across the street and there is no way to sleep. They played past 130am. Appears that this is a current issue for this high end hotel and upsetting guests who want to sleep. We ended up changing rooms which is a major pain. Got a smaller outdated room and no lower rate. Guest services/concierge is truly amazing. Incredible service. Bellmen as well.
