Clean, conveniently located to nearby restaurants, Whole Foods, and transit stations. Valet was the only parking option and was expensive at $62/day. Should be half that for a hotel guest. Accommodations were fine; not exceptional. Rates were way too high in my opinion

Beware the valet cost...

The property was clean and modern overall, but the double sofa-bed was clearly never used or cleaned and we had to request linens when we arrived for it. Valet parking ended up being $62 for a single night. This was not posted anywhere I recall seeing and there were really no other parking options available. I'm not a fan of this lack of transparency.
