Have only stayed there once just to try it(i usually stay at the airport Marriott). It is very AC like but that is not necessarily a bad thing. The parking is a bit of an issue. There are a few slots right in front of the hotel but, as said in a previous post, you are likely to end up in the garage next door. Its not too bad of a hike, but its not what I would call close or attached. I joked that they should put a walkway to one of the upper floors so you don't have to cross that side street.

There is a small shopping area across the street with a few restaurants, shops etc. I'm a Wahoos fish taco guy so that's where i ended up. Houstons is good too. All are within decent walking distance.
