Courtyard Hotel = 250 rooms (all upscale and urban/hip, 4 star)
Hampton Inn and Suites = 250 rooms (upscale, urban 3 star) *
Hilton Skirvin Hotel = 225 rooms (all full-upscale 5 star)
Holiday Inn Express = 150 rooms (budget hotel, 3 star) *
Renaissance Hotel = 311 rooms (all upscale, convention 4.5 star)
Residence Inn = 150 rooms (upscale, business "extended stay" 3 star)
Sheraton Hotel = 395 rooms (upscale, business, and convention, 3.5 star)
Where are you getting these star ratings?

The Skirvin isn't and can't be 5 star. There are so many detailed requirements of 5 stars that it's not possible. In fact, the Skirvin has not even been Mobil star rated. If it was, it would probably get 3 stars (same as the Renaissance, Sheraton, Waterford, and Crowne Plaza...all of which do have Mobil ratings)

The Skirvin could possibly get 4 stars if they were seriously seriously on top of the inspector.

The Skirvin does (along with the others I mentioned) have a AAA 4-Diamond rating. Of course AAA Diamonds are much easier to get than Mobil Stars. Mobil is definitely the "gold standard" in hotel ratings.
