Evan I am a Hilton honor l, I had to pay for parking $70 per night which is very expensive. Also, the room did not smell good and the carpet was not clean. They refused to give us a cart to bring our stuff in and they said we have to have their bellman do that which is also extra tips. I do not mind paying tips at all and I do that always, but they can’t force me to have someone looking at what my stuff and felt rushed off loading our belongings.

The room was great. But there parking fees were way too high. I got a welcome letter through Expedia for my stay and it stated that parking was $60. the hotel said they now charge $70 (per nite). the checkin girl said she would talk to her manager about it and she never got back to me. I had to talk to a different person right before we left and she took it down to the $60. They also have a weird additional $25 fee per night, that they said you could get $25 worth of food or stuff from the store or restaurant to compensated for that charge. I got $25 worth of Altoids

Room was great only thing is we had a leak from the shower that kept going on the floor. Besides that everything was good. The breakfast was decent, would be helpful if there are people down there monitoring and guiding people where to go and to check the tickets which they never checked mine. Overall I would come back it’s a nice hotel and the staff are awesome :).
