Excellent facility but the parking is an issue. As a guest we shouldn’t have to pay. If we had to go out numerous times it would add up as well as the $12.50 per night. To enter the hotel was chaotic as Google maps directed us to another street due to construction. It wasn’t easy to find.

We stayed in a one bedroom which was beautifully clean. The bed was comfortable & it was very quiet & had blackout blinds which made the room wonderfully dark for sleeping. The only thing i did not like was that the bathroom was all printed glass which did not create a feeling of privacy. I would stay again.
