Have held several meetings here in the last couple of years. The buffet is fine and $9.50 each is not unreasonable if you want a big breakfast. If you don't, there are lots of places nearby where you can find breakfast for two cheaper than $19. You choose!
I have only ever stayed in whichever tower is served by elevators straight ahead from the front door. The rooms are clean, staff are pleasant and helpful. I understand this is the largest and busiest Courtyard in the chain - the hotel is always busy and there always seem to be several security people in the lobby. Location is convenient to most things you'd need.
Parking is across the street, no matter which option you choose - valet or park yourself.
I've never parked elsewhere but you can probably find somewhere cheaper if you ask the bell staff.
