Ditto this on sixth floor of Tower.  I'd be unlikely to write a bad
public review for the hotel even though I'm not in the apparently
delightful West wing.  My room is basically fine; I haven't even
touched the thermostat and the shower temperature has been fair
enough.

Trying to use the network from my room, even pretty late at night
(1am), has been terrible though.  I have decent enough signal, but
multi-second RTTs and 25%+ packet loss.  When I get in at night and
just want to take care of a few quick things online I find myself
still struggling to get through them two hours later.  For my
remaining two nights here I think I'll just have to camp in the lounge
right up until I'm ready to tuck in.

And oh yeah, breakfast has been disappointing.
