The parking was a lil’ confusing.. but manageable. The staff at first were taken back with us since we are deaf. Once they figured out how to communicate with us it was smooth sailing.

Disliked: Amenities
Parking wasn’t very convenient, there were spiders and gnats in our room, bathroom was small, BREKFAST server was not especially pleasant…. Don’t feel like the room and hotel was worth the almost 250.00 we paid for one night. The sleep inn we stayed in the night before was 150.00 cheaper and roomier and had a better breakfast. The location was great and the roof top bar was cool but that’s about it.
