Just got back from a 4night stay. I was unable to get the same resort for all 4 nights so had to split 2 at Royal Pacific and 2 at Hard Rock.
RPR: is looking dated. Room doors have dings and scratches in them, (such as strollers, wheelchairs or luggage banging into them); the hotel gave off a "dingy" (for lack of better word) feel. My final bill from RPR has weird charges on it.
HR: could also use some TLC but overall feel was much better than at RPR. The only trash can is a tiny one in the bathroom. Checking in early at the HR, they didn't tell me our room cards were only good for express pass use until I was officially checked into hotel.....
