Would pick another hotel that has an easier entrance to get to.
Pros:

The location to walkable eateries and shopping.

Cons:

Getting to the entrance was difficult. The city streets (one ways) and the commons made it a difficult find and then for us to park our car was another go around the many blocks to get to. We didn’t use valet. Parking out front, while checking in didn’t have enough room for all of us coming and going.

Comfortable hotel in a great downtown location
Pros:

Clean property, friendly staff at restaurant and bar.

Cons:

The Valet Parking sign was outside and prominent but we were told there was no valet parking due to the weather. The reason we needed it was because of the weather!
The cover on the bed was not heavy enough to keep us warm.
