You have to pay for parking - $20 per day. This is not advertised. The parking garage faces I-5 and traps the noise from it. I think OSHA would take issue with the dB of the noise level.

We waited almost 2 hours for the shuttle. The shuttle does not come around on a routine basis, like all the other hotel shuttles. When we called, we ended up waiting another hour for a shuttle. When we departed, the night clerk did not book the am shuttle for us. It was just due to the manager, that we were able to get a shuttle to take us to the airport. There is no restaurant close by, so you are dependent on the hotel shop for food. In all honesty, I would probably avoid this hotel. They just made a stressful day, more stressful.
