Nice new hotel. Close to restaurants. Wholefoods is only a few minutes walk too. Some features weren't very convenient but weren't a big deal; like the stairs leading to the outside of the building only. I was staying on the second floor and when the elevators were slow (or one was broken), I'd rather use the stairs if they were going inside to the lobby.

Not happy with the room service

Didn’t have room service the whole time I stayed I did request it one time on Sunday. Request a clean towels and toilet paper. Because we ran out of toilet paper and no one came and did the service got back to the room at 10 PM and I had to go down to get the stuff and then they told me you didn’t have washcloths.

There's only VALET parking for $38 a night. If you're lucky you get to stop in front of the hotel, otherwise they tell you to go and park on level 6 at the garage nearby and then walk to the hotel and anyway you are paying 38 dollars for this! Unbelievable! Breakfast is not great and the staff in the kitchen is not very friendly.

Nice place, nice location. Make sure you use the valet parking. I pulled into the adjacent parking garage with the Hotel's name on it. On check in, the clerk asked if I wanted to use valet service. I told her I was in the garage already. She said nothing else. Driving to dinner 3 hours later, I had to pay $30 to get out. Speaking to the desk upon return, they said I should have used valet and since I already re-parked, I was subject to the city's parking garage rates. They don't own the garage. The next morning, $60 to get out. So....$90 to park for less than 24 hours! No help from the staff on this. Yikes.
