Parking is an extra $30 or you are stuck with a 2 hour limit on street parking (11pm to 8am excluded) I went to check in At 315pm and had to wait 30 mins for room to be ready. Staff at check in were average. The single member of staff at check out was great. Room was clean, bed was comfy, even on the 6th floor the noise from traffic seemed super loud at times. Expensive for one night.
