Stayed on New Year's Eve. Couldnt get a drink in the lounge because they closed it for a party starting several hours later. Had to walk down the street to a bar for a drink. When we returned at 11:30pm party was still going and still couldnt get a drink without paying big fee for party that was just about over. Went to the room to discover they had suspended room service due to the same party. Decided to watch the ball drop on tv but tv signal died at 5 to 12. Dont stay on new years eve unless you sign up for the party, all other guests dont het any service.
