The hotel was great clean and comfortable. The valet attached to the hotel is separate from the hotel even though I suggest using iparkit.com to book ur parking unless ur ok paying triple the price for a not so great Service. Even if ur the only one asking for your vehicle plan to wait 25 min or to get your car. And don’t lose ur ticket. It’s a very faulty system out to get u to pay max rates should u lose ur ticket. Having to wait almost 30 min is highly inconvenient

I booked a room with two queen beds, but was given a room with two double beds - a significant difference. The room was not well-cleaned when we arrived and was missing wash clothes. When the room was serviced the following day, we were not given new towels or coffee.

The room was very nice. The only issue we had was that we were unable to connect to the Wifi. We had just gotten married earlier in the day and my new bride wanted to post all the pics at the end of the day. Nothing we did could get us connected. I travel for business so for me I look to connect the minute I hit the room. It was disappointing to be sure.
