Property is quite outdated

Overall good experience overall, however the showers have no lip or frame so water flows all over the bathroom floor, mattresses are super flat and have little padding. The HVAC system blasts air every few minutes either hot or cold then it shuts down so the temperature in the room always feels drastically different based if the HVAC is blasting or not. Staff was friendly and it is in a great location. Parking is way too expensive. You can either pay for expensive valet or one of the near by expensive garages. There is no free or cheap parking within walking distance.
