Valet was WAY overpriced and understaffed, doing their best but not cutting it. Especially for the astronomic cost.

Poor experience

Poor experience, starting with the difficulty of parking with a $40 valet service, and the constant noise from toilet flushing that could be heard almost nonstop. Also, be careful in the bathroom, when you flush, water literally splashes on the floor.
