Either you pay $35 for valley parking or park behind the building where someone broke into a car the night before. This was not clear on the booking site that you have to essentially find your own parking! Terrible location! No water in the rooms and the bed mattresses were TERRIBLE. Only a single blanket for the sleep sofa, ridiculous. The room had hardly any power outlets, none in the night stands. They also initially booked us into a room with one single bed for 3 adults, how did they not see that!
