Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
Room was relatively clean, some surface area cleaning in bathroom shower was needed. Front desk staff was friendly. Parking is obtained primarily in a next-door garage so be prepared to pay by the hour/day. It is less expensive than the valet service. I would recommend paying for the 24-hour option (via a ground floor type-in kiosk) as it is the most economical, then you can come and go as you please. It started over the weekend at $30/day, then went to $20/day during the week.
