I didn't really like the parking situations, super tight! I believe the streets should be accommodated with the stay for free. I can see the parking getting overly crowded for most part of the visit.

The hotel its self was beautiful, excellent location, extremely nice staff and a great rate. But sadly the beds were very firm which I don’t like and the pillows were also flat and stiff. The bedding was itchy. The music playing in the hall was so loud I had to call and ask them to turn it down at 1am which they did. I wish the beds were more comfy because otherwise, I’d book here again!
