Room was clean and comfortable, a little small but it was fine. We had burgers which were very average, they tasted like frozen burgers but in the oven, very disappointing. There was also no where to make tea or coffee in your room or a fridge to cool your drinks or food. It was fine but I expected more from a 4 star hotel

The absense of parking or a drop off area really is an issue at this hotel as others say. Parking on a weekend is extremely difficult. Lack of porter service to assist with luggage make this really a 3 star hotel. Carrying luggage in rain across town is a drawback.

Parking is not close to hotel. About a 10 min walk. There is no way to pull car up and unload bags. So don’t book this hotel if you can’t get your luggage down very bumpy sidewalk for ten min walk. Hotel walls are so thin you hear snoring of neighboring rooms and everyone walking down hallways. Wonderful hotel, wonderful staff, but they can’t improve these noise and parking problems.
