My room for my stay was very comfortable and clean, very roomy and had a fairly nice view. The area around the hotel was a bit noisy, you could hear commotion in the streets and the train near by. There is a fire station right at the corner that I assume could be heard as well. When I arrived I was informed their parking garage was full and was given an alternative parking option that would be $30 for the night (the property charges $40). Unfortunately what wasn’t told to me is that there was no in-and-out of the other parking garage and if you park before midnight you’ll be charged the overnight rate and the rate from when you entered. Ended up paying $45.
