the room included real glasses, not the usual plastic ones. I REQUESTED a ground floor room, and my request WAS accommodated.

The 3hr max parking IS a pain. It would be ideal if the hotel offered parking permits .

The family room provided ample space and suited my needs perfectly. I found the shower pressure to be excellent. The available breakfast selections proved delicious.

I noticed that the chandelier in the room used white lights, they created a slightly sterile feel.
