Hotel is very clean and updated. Room was nice and quiet. The only downside is that you have to pay $25 dollars additional for parking in the garage on the property. Hotel was about $150 dollars a night so why am I paying for parking.

The stay was lovely but the extra fees, we don’t like. When you own a business it is up to the company to pay their employees sufficient and not expect their employees to pay them.
