the room felt quite small, especially for the price i paid (seriously, i've seen larger closets). also, i found the promised parking nonexistent. it turns out it is just the nearby ncp, and i had to pay extra for that privilege, what a joke. i could hear music late into the night, not the hotel's fault entirely, but definitely disturbing
