Great place to stay!!! I did think that $40 for overnight parking was steep. ..though I was happy that they have a good number of electric car charging ports ... Staff were helpful and pleasant.

Loved the location. Also loved that it felt like a 1 bedroom apartment. I was able to buy groceries and make meals in the kitchen. I’d definitely stay again and recommend to friends.
