The night before we were going to stay at the hotel I received an email stating “Due to construction, the hotel offers offsite self parking or onsite valet service at a cost.” When we arrived I didn’t see any construction when I went in to park in the parking structure attached to the hotel, when I checked in staff asked if I parked inside and I said yes. They gave me a tag to put inside my car and they left it at that, only to find a $29 and some change charge? When I called about it they said they had charged for parking inside the structure, so I’m assuming that was the “onsite valet service charge” even though I parked it myself (there was no one outside to attend those arriving) and the staff never mentioned the charge to me when I arrived or before I left even though I let them know where I parked. On top of that, the parking structure is shared with some apartment homes right next to the hotel, so don’t expect it to be easy to find parking. The staff was nice during my stay, when I checked in I noticed a sign that says you have to come down to ask for towel, blankets etc. it’s clear they don’t take it to your room so if you need anything extra be prepared to take a trip to the lobby, I happened to step out the hotel so on my way back up I asked for extra towels. The room was cleaned up, can’t complain about that. If you don’t plan on staying in so much I’d say it’s a fair price. The location is actually nice, I took a walk in DTR to get fresh air. I just crossed the street and enjoyed the Festival of Lights. Didn’t see much live tv but HBO MAX was available so that was nice. Breakfast is 6am-9am, it was basic but good. I think it’s only a buffet because you can get more? Most of the variety was eggs and bread (toast,bagel,muffins) With my experience, I don’t think I’d stay again or recommend friends & family

Nice place to stay. Great bed. Newly remodeled. A short walk to the Mission Inn or Convention Center. Nice rooms. Breakfast was ok. Better instructions for parking while checking in is needed.

Clean and newer. Parking structure was large enough for my large raised pickup truck!
