Everything was excellent. Just be aware that you will have to pay $30 to park in the parking garage. If you get lucky there is some street parking nearby, not sure if you have to pay to park in the street.

They gave away my room, charged me for another room and hid for five days so they couldn’t get my refund. Also had talk to a front desk a day prior to check in and still gave away my room, More likely will have to talk to a lawyer
