Liked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities, room comfort

Pros: * The property itself is clean and appears well-maintained. * Communication via text was polite and respectful. Cons: * Misleading "free parking" advertisement. * Parking is assigned and based on availability, but this is not clearly communicated until late in the day. * Late communication regarding parking arrangements, making it impossible to address issues before arrival. * Lack of on-site support, making it difficult to resolve issues promptly. * Street parking is often full, leaving guests with no viable parking options. * Responses via text message, while polite, were unhelpful and dismissive. * The overall check in process seems to be done remotely, and if there is a problem it is not helpful.
