Parking
The roomed were clean and the staff was wonderful. However, the $80 charge for parking was entirely unexpected. I’m not sure why, because of their location this is not an added benefit.

Great room, not so great an area.
The area is sketchy. Parking really limited, and was sold out when I checked in. The front desk men sent me blocks away, multiple police cars just walking back to the hotel. When I did get parking the next day, it was not clean & not well lit, and the access ways were dingy. The hotel room was very clean and great. Breakfast meh.

Great location & walkablility!
All was as to be expected, very good all around. Comfy bed, clean rooms, helpful staff. The pool was the smallest and most shallow I’ve ever seen in a hotel. It was frustrating that there were not many non-pork items among the hot items at breakfast - my son almost ate pork sausage because he thought it was the same as the turkey sausage of the previous day. Lots of nice other options though - pancakes, cinnamon rolls, oatmeal. Great location
