Great place. Lobby area is beautiful and the room is spacious and clean. Front desk staff were very nice and helpful. Only negative would be the bathroom was not great and the sliding doors did not close properly. Also, parking is a bit steep for the area. Originally saw price as $25 on Expedia and it seemed to increase by the time we traveled to $34.
