8/10 Good
"The customer service lady was rude, the only parking with this hotel is valet, 70$ per day. We found another parking couple of blocks away for only 24$ a day. Room was clean but we kept finding hair in several places, there was so much dust behind the mirror in the bathroom, it was falling down on everything on the vanity. Room also has old furniture smells. Coffee in the room was good. Bottle of vine was also complimentary."
