The room was nice. There was a hidden cost of $10/day for parking... The hallways smelled of Smoke and marijuana. We were there for an event and the hall was nice and located just off the Lobby.

Definitely false advertisement the pictures don’t look like the hotel. Privacy concerns with open vents in the shower. Only one restaurant is open. Front desk staff is the only reason I gave it a one star.
