Great place. Great location!
Everything was great. I thought the parking was a bit of a hassle during check in. HOWEVER - it’s underground and heated, and super easy to get to after check in. So I have ZERO complaints on this 7 degree morning! I would def stay here again.

Comfortable place. I've stayed here before and would stay here again when traveling. Parking is $15 for them to park your car. Parking on the street is free but make sure you don't park in a tow zone.
