overpriced minibar limited parking
the breakfast was quite generous, even included a variety of fresh fruits.
The minibar was quite overpriced. I nearly fainted at the sight of those numbers. and, oh, the limited parking situation. It was like a competitive sport! i had to park a block away, which wasn't exactly ideal with luggage

Really good Honeymoon Stay
turndown service yoga mat
During our honeymoon, we stayed for three nights. The turndown service included complimentary crème brûlée, a lovely touch. I appreciated the gin and tonic station and yoga mat available in the room.
The room could have used more thorough cleaning. The room linen had a noticeable brown stain.
Dining
