My second stay. In a great location. Limited parking behind hotel offsite parking available but it rained all four days and walking a few blocks to the car was inconvenient. Breakfast was average. Biggest issue is space planning in the bathroom. We had a king size room. The sink takes up the entire counter. No place to set anything other than the top of the toilet. Evidently some rooms have a glass shelf which would have been nice.

Checking in was not pleasant. We reserved a queen room with fireplace and never got this. We were given a double bed and no fireplace. The guy at front desk said they do not have fireplaces. SO WHY IS IT LISTED TO BOOK??THE CONTINENTAL BREAKFAST IS THE WORST WE HAVE HAD. NO fresh fruit or real orange juice. No peanut butter. Parking was a HUGE ISSUE. There are only maybe 10 spots behind the building and you have to walk around the hotel to get to the back. Do not recommend this place at all. I’d rather pay the extra money and stay at a hotel that is comfortable and a nice continental breakfast.. we have stayed at so many hotels with continental breakfast and they’ve been lovely. This one was the worst.!!!!!! Not worth $200 a night.
