Cons (-) The "available parking" was street parking. The street we parked on was filled with needles and drug paraphernalia. Our car window was smashed and broken into. The man working the front desk wasn't helpful and could have cared less that we were robbed. The wifi was slow. The bathrooms were rarely available. The bathroom didn't have a curtain and people across could see in the bathroom. The only go...
