Know something we don't?
Seeming to float above downtown like a Jetsons-age oasis, the Standard’s rooftop bar attracts everyone from buttoned-up office workers seeking happy hour drinks to the swanked-out, late-night crowd, whose appearance brings out the velvet ropes. Décor is ultra-mod with futuristic pod-like cabanas -- complete with vibrating waterbeds -- planted around the shimmering blue rectangle of the hotel pool. The whole swinging scene is set against a sweeping view of downtown’s skyline. Order any drink here and the result will be a strong concoction delivered to your table (or lounge chair, as the case may be) by a very young and very attractive server. Of course, the bar would be sub-Standard without the requisite fireplace, DJ booth and dance floor.

Do not go here!!! They are racist! Especially the bouncer Chris. Drinks are overpriced too! Save your money and go somewhere else!!!
