Reservation said valet parking, but it was self parking, no where on their website does it say self parking. Couldn't get room cool for some reason. The balcony had no furniture and was just a look over, no where did it say you couldn't sit and enjoy the balcony, the pictures online show balcony furniture. Not to mention there is no privacy if you did stand on the balcony the next room over is right there, had I known this I wouldn't have bothered getting a balcony room, especially since the curtains didn’t block out the light from the balcony door. The property is over rated likely cause it is new, but I specifically picked it since it was rated a 9+, definitely more a 7 or 8.
