It would have helped if the hotel had a good parking rate and stated it. I parked 10 blocks away for a better rate. Breakfast could have been better, but there are several place nearby for good sit-down meals.

the elevators are a disaster. Sometimes you have to wait 15 minutes for one. The breakfast is ample, but is not good food.
