Were there chocolate-covered strawberries at the Lulu party? I can't imagine there not being... Well, you can probably guess my $64,000 question but I need to ask it anyway.

I think the "400" on the Hard Rock sign is referring to the Hundreds of Thousands that the condo units will be selling for, not the price per night of hotel rooms. It will have both condos and hotel rooms. Personally, I wouldn't want to live in a 400+ thousand dollar condo that was part of a Hard Rock hotel. Sounds like the neighbors might be a bit rambunctious. I like the Omni, it’s got everything - free wifi, a great pool/jacuzzi, and everyone here’s been really nice.

Its ultra convenient as well to pop into during the day. For a good hotel experience and nice rooms, try the Hilton Gaslamp. Its ultra convenient as well to pop into during the day.

Have to say, the rooms are pretty sound proof and, if I didn't have to be "on" today, I would have joined them. My experience with the Hyatt so far is really positive, BUT I got the clear impression that they think I'm a business traveller. Possibly because of my relatively late arrival and wearing a button-down dress shirt. But it's interesting that we're having such different experiences.
