The hotel was fine, room was nice and clean and new, but a bit on a small side. Ambiance at the bar is very cheerful. No parking at the hotel, but they have a reserved floor in the parking a short walk away. At the hotel, they charged $30 but the parking, if I entered there myself, would cost me only $20.
