The room does not have enough closet and drawer space. Parking is tough. There are only a few street parking spaces, first come first serve, and to move after 8 hours. The only alternative is go to a covered parking two blocks away. Not good for older people especially when it rains.

Hotel is very nice and highly recommend. It’s a little noisy at night, but the hotel does provide ear plugs. It’s conveniently located close to several eating places. Hotel itself doesn’t have a parking area, but the parking garage is close by. Breakfast is phenomenal with great service.
