$40 for 24 hours with valet in / out was well worth what we needed. Excellent location - most gracious hotel reception staff. Allowed us to enter early for our 24 hour stay. Delightful lady ( Isadella?) Very comfortable accommodations with nice touches in hotel — sounds simple but is always nice to see - eg water in fridge, correct channel guide for tv, hot water!
