Meh

Valet parking is the only option and it was a comedy of delays both days. The restaurant and bar is limited to say the least. Had to request a crib three times before it arrived. Amazing building but feels like the operation is run on a shoe string.

The hotel sent me a text to pre-register, which I did and asked me scan in my driver lic and cc info. When I arrived at 1pm they only had 1 room. Front desk had given my other room away it took over an hour to resolve and it was not pleasant after a 5 hour drive. Restaurant and bar was closed and my family just wanted to go to bed. This was all planned well ahead this experience was u professional and handled inappropriately. Front desk actually asked the man they checked into my room to get out ?? Unbelievable
