The only option for parking is the hotels valet parking service for which there is a daily fee. There is no busboy service and there were no carts available to transport our luggage up to the room. We had to carry multiple pieces of luggage without any cart up to our room on the sixth floor. The ice machine on our floor was not working. They have a restaurant on the 17th floor, which is very pricey. There are limited options nearby for dining while we were walking to look for a restaurant we encountered numerous homeless people, and upon exiting the hotel we were immediately accosted by a homeless man.
