Executive Hotel Pacific
Leaky refrigerator, water was not very hot in the shower. Overpriced breakfast, so I declined. Restaurant attached to the hotel was meh and also overpriced. Parking was extremely inconvenient, so much so that I got lost and ended up in a minor traffic collision due to gridlock. Explanation for directions ...
