I liked the hotel very much. Did not like paying $25 a day to park or $50 a day deposit.

Overall Score1.0/ 5
Booked a room for two nights at a decent price only to find there are hidden "destination fee" of $25 a day that gives you a $15 credit at the coffee shop which gives $15.09 avacado toast. As for the parking lot across the street (not associated with the hotel) $15 for 10 hours or $90 for 24 hours. With the hidden $25 they give you $15 credit, two bags of peanuts and two beers and four bottles of water. I'm very disappointed with this hotel and would recommend complaining loudly in the lobby to anyone getting the "destination fee" and hourly that will be waived. Having a beautiful hotel in a beautiful area does not excuse hidden fees.
