Room was dark, looked nothing like the pictures online and had a very foul smell throughout. Hotel reservations didn't have any other rooms available so I asked for a refund. We did not spend the night and still waiting for refund for the reservation I canceled. The property has no parking Around the property. Hotel only has 8 valet spots on the property but all taken . Be prepared to walk a fair distance and spend $30 / night

Nice hotel. Parking is not good and was not well explained by original front desk on check in. It was inconvenient for the restaurant to stop serving food at 9 on a Friday. We ended up going to the restaurant at the crowne royal. Front desk staff were polite but didn’t offer any assistance when i was carrying all my family’s luggage by myself. Unlikely that I would stay here again.
