The lobby was beautiful and the food in the restaurant was very nice. Everyone was pleasant and professional. It was a big surprise to find out we had to pay for parking and that the continental breakfast (for two) was $50. But the service was very nice. Since we were in town to care for a family member at the hospital, for an extended time, we need to find less expensive accommodations.
