Nice Hotel. But the 100 per day of your stay plus 15 per day to park is crazy.And they insist parking comes out of the deposit. So. 3 stars at the most.

Clean hotel and room. Parking is an enclosed structure with a gate code which is nice.
Shout out to the manager and front desk staff, they're great. There was a problem with my original room because the previous guest left a mess and checked out late. They were quick to help me out into another room.

Pro: Friendly staff. Very helpful. When i asked for something. They tried really hard to accommodate. Con: The carpeting looks a little nasty; akthough I think the color and pattern does not help. No one wanted to put their down on it. We never walked in the room barefoot.
