Weekend trip
Decent hotel, but I didn't read that it was going to be under construction and parking cost $20/day. The room was fine, front staff and restaurant staff were very nice.

Upgraded our room for free since our original room wasnt ready, was not made aware you pay additional for parking. Sodas in the lobby were also expired, room itself was spotless and great views. Within walking distance of everything we wanted to go see. Besides the parking fees and expired goods overall it was a great place to stay. Just wish they made you aware of paying to park with them.
