Hotel was very nice, staff did as they should. Breakfast was good and had several attendants continuing to keep things fresh and full. Our only issue was the parking, we had to park on the street. Our van has a height limit, there were no spaces available were we could fit. They wanted to charge us $25 to park, but if we left and came back it was possible the spaces would be full and we would have paid and still had to park on the street. It's actually across the street where there's meters, the meters don't charge on weekends, but during week I guess we would have had to keep feeding meter. Hotel was very nice, obviously upgraded, everything very nice, quiet. Our room was very big, had a full refrigerator, stove top, microwave, dishes, ect. We only needed 1 night, but rate was very fair for the property. We will definitely keep it on our favorites and stay again
