My second time staying at the Hard Rock, and it was just as good as the first. The rooms are fully soundproofed so you hear NOTHING of the busy nightlife if the windows are closed. The room's large and spacious, Mary Jane's is excellent too!

It was fairly priced, clean, and staff conducted themselves professionally and were very kind. Although, I ended up paying more for breakfast even after paying online, my overall experience was good and it could have only been better if I did t have to make 2 breakfast payments. Other than that, it was great.
