Last time I was there the hotel parking lot was strictly for valet. I have parked off site and used valet before. Don't really prefer either! I have stayed here many times and can echo the comment that there are some wierd rooms. Once I think I was on the first floor and had a room that wasn't much bigger than a closet. The other extreme was being upgraded to the Laurier Suite on the 4th floor just opposite the Gold Lounge. It must have been over 2000 square feet! The bedroom/washroom had been updated, but there was also a huge dining room, living area and large industrial kitchen which were fairly dated and a long haulway connecting all the rooms.
