Parking was easy. I felt safe as I arrived alone at night and there was ample lighting. The staff was friendly and accommodating. My room was in an area that felt safe with ample staff around until I was safely in my room. This is important for older females traveling alone and I appreciate it. There were shops nearby but I did not utilize them as I was in the area for a conference.
