Don’t come in a vehicle that’s more than a car or very short cross over. The on site garage has a height limit of 6’ 5”. (Think full size SUV with luggage rack won’t fit). The alternative garages they give you to park are sketchy for security. Makes for bad first impression.

The room itself had a nice view. The customer service was ok, nothing spectacular. Lots of homeless just 2 blocks away. They did not have glass cups to offer and mini fridge didn’t have anything inside. Housekeeping was great and took care of the cleaning each day and brought us new towels promptly.
