"Our stay was wonderful overall! The only negative things I would mention are that our room was pretty small and the mattresses were quite uncomfortable. We also booked online but were surprised to find out that a $180 deposit was required at check-in. Parking was another challenge, as there weren’t many convenient options, so we had to use valet parking, which cost $77 per day. Other than those few things, we really enjoyed our stay!"
