Having to pay for parking was a surprise. It is underground and secure so worth the money. Getting to the gym was weird as you had to walk through the restaurant/ bar area but I found you could also access via the stairwell from the elevator side then there was an exit to the hallway side were workout facility was. Staff is very friendly and helpful. Easy walk down to fisherman’s warf and other attractions. Enjoyed my stay
