"Great old classy hotel. In good location for a few days. High tea was very over priced and not that good. Not all high teas are created equal. You may call it high tea, but this was very underwhelming for $200."

"Got no help from valet, didn’t meet me at the car no greeting when I came inside. I had to find them. Same deal leaving I called to bring car around when I walked down to pick up car no one around had to go in and find them. Paying 60$ plus tipping I expected better service."
