We stayed there one New Years Eve when it was owned by Trump. I was very impressed by how well run it was. We decided to go to a party early in the evening and asked the doorman to fetch us a cab. "Oh no, you won't need a cab. Our guests never need a cab. Where do you want to go; I'll call our limo and have you taken there." And he did.

Later, we came back to the hotel after midnight to spend some time in it's beautiful atrium, and, as you might imagine, most people still up after the ball dropped had a bit to drink. There were a bunch of young women in beautiful gowns nearby who were rapidly getting into an argument. When one took off her high heel and began using it as a hammer to attack her companions, faster than I could blink, a cloud of huge, athletic military type security agents came out of nowhere and stopped it. I had not even seen them before and had no clue where they came from. Again, I was impressed.
