Valet parking was efficient and wait time less than five minutes. Charge was added to my room bill. Breakfast choices included hot foods (eggs, potatoes) and cold (cereal, delicious fresh fruit, assorted breads) My room promised a waterview which was given and I appreciated the blackout shade to enhance sleep time.

It wasn't a pleasant stay. We arrived at the hotel at 330. Check in was easy. Except for the hold that wont be released for 21 days for no reason. It said sleeps we brought air mattress very little room for even 3 people. We asked for blankets due to toom being hot/cold not consistent. Requested them at 10:30 pm the guy at desk told me he'd get to it if he could due to them being on the 2nd floor. I offered to get them myself. Up till 3:30 girls were sleeping i was freezing. Housekeeper blew through the door at 10am terrifying the 4 teenage girls i had with me. Checkout is at noon not 10am. Pretty disappointed overall

Valet parking is $40 way too expensive. We were able to find street parking that was way less expensive. Breakfast was included but ends at 10am sharp. People were still trying to get breakfast and they were closing the doors.

Not a bad place to stay when bought at a discount. Beds are VERY firm, and uncomfortable. Only provided parking is through valet at $40 per night, otherwise paid street side parking is available if you can snag a spot.
