BEWARE if you have your own vehicle be prepare to pay $52 a day for self parking in the hotels own parking garage. If your doing self parking don’t stop underneath the canopy to unload your luggage because valet will tell you to move because you are causing traffic (which I wasn’t). 3rd floor in parking garage which is also street lvl is all for valet which you can barely see painted on the floor. Also it’s very hard to get around in the parking garage I would advice not to bring a truck or big suv. Arrive there at 3 to check in just to be told my room wasn’t ready yet and I would have to wait. Finally when I received my room I went to drop off my luggage and the room was extremely humid while the AC was set at 67. Figure out later when I went out that if you set your thermostat above 70 the room will be humid when you come back.

We had a great experience overall. I was a little hesitant from other review but we didn’t encounter load noise. Parking is expensive but we paid valet instead. When you request by time you get down to lobby your car is there. Only thing was the pool and gym was not available at our stay.
