convenient parking reasonable price central location inadequate storage round table metal frame

The parking garage UNDERNEATH the hotel was very convenient. It had a reasonable price. The hotel has a central location. I could easily walk to many food and shopping options.

I found there to be totally inadequate storage space. The desk was replaced by a small round table. The wooden wardrobe had been replaced by a metal frame, SUCH A shame.
