My boyfriend and I went for the Mad Monster Party event/convention, and are extremely dissatisfied even disappointed. The reviews below are correct. The toilet in our room is incredibly loud, and there is no shower door. There is only glass covering half the shower which leaves the floor soaked, and if you slip good luck! The bath room sink sits so low, it's not good for tall people. I mean it is sort of such as "lipstick on a pig". It's very estheticly pleasing. However it's very unconventional, awkward and just terrible for the cost. There is no coffee maker (which I love coffee, need coffee and I've never heard of a hotel without a coffee maker). No wine glasses, also I specially purchased a bottle of wine to celebrate the weekend, and could not get someone to provide a wine bottle opener! Front desk said to talk to the bar, the bar said to talk to front desk, front desk had to call the bar and said I could take my bottle to the bar to open but could not drink there. With the hassle of locating a corkscrew, I didn't even bother to ask to borrow two wine glasses. On top of that, it was such a pain and trouble to check in and unload/bring my things to my room. I have to park in a parking lot instead of the covered parking garage closest to the hotel. Why? I'm paying for my room, I should have free parking wherever I choose closest to the hotel. Irritating. Couldn't find a bell hop or a luggage dolly. So I had to make several trips. Very thankful it was a sunny day. For the amount of money it would cost to stay here, I'm extremely disappointed. They are not renovating at the moment. Also, my city view consisted of the building next door for the deluxe king room. And there was this strange little door in our room which opened with no trouble to a storage or water heater, something. Did I mention you have to pay to use wifi??? Extremely disapponted and next year I will be sure to get a room somewhere else.

Only went to one game Spring Training (good seats behind home plate in the shade) but I'm a fan. Order your tickets next year early as all the good seats at most games went fast. We did a 1pm game and saw Gonzo waving and chatting with fans as we left. I think this would be a great place to grab a bunch of friends, all buy lawn seats, get there early, and hang out on a blanket on a nice cool afternoon early in Spring Training. I can't imagine what they will use the place for for the rest of the year, but they do have a Balloon Fest booked this weekend and a concert and stuff for the kids. I hope this will really take off and give us East-siders a fun place to come to. Will check out the Zipps Shuttle next time. Eats and drinks are pretty steep in price, so bring plenty of cash/credit. Great music during the game. Thumps up guys! ;)

5 star: The bakery and the food selection are all yummy to the eyes, mouth, and nose. The crepes are all good that it's so hard to have one bite from someone's plate. It's so irresistible. I'd recommend trying any crepes with fruits because it's all fresh. 3.5 star: The line is so long it'll take you half an hour from the time you step in line until the time you receive your purchase. If you have patience and have the time, then by all means go here. If you don't, then skip this place. 5 star: The atmosphere is like willy wonky the chocolate factory in reality. They have this beautiful chocolate fountain that you have to take a picture in front of it. This design is what attracts a lot of people to this bakery. Without the chocolate fountain and the other intricate designs, the bakery wouldn't be so lovely THAT much.

After seeing the line out the door and seeing other reviews we had to try it. ShackBurger and fries were good. Ordered a root beer float but they were out of root beer. Fun atmosphere.
