I recently visited this hotel and had a somewhat mixed experience. The facilitator was okay. However, the front desk staff at check-in fell short. They seemed annoyed, provided short answers without making eye contact. For a hotel reception, I'd expect a warmer welcome. Hopefully, they can work on improving their customer service skills.

Expensive. Have to pay for parking. Vending machines don’t work so you’ll need to purchase from their store which is expensive.
