The advertised parking proved deceptive. I incurred a charge of $55 per night. upon inquiry, staff cited website details, details never communicated during car acceptance. i found the absence of towel hooks in the bathroom inconvenient. the 'double standard' room lacked a coffee maker, a surprising omission for a hotel of this supposed caliber.

The lobby had a wonderful smell that was very cute. my room upgrade was a surprise and i found it amazing (i really did). the hotel bar was great and i saw that it had a restaurant. the hotel location felt safe. It was close to a metro station.
i noticed that the shower had a glass see through wall. whoever you're sharing a room with can directly watch you shower. i thought this was inappropriate.
