I ABSOLUTELY loved the location. It is next to Harpa and walkable to everything downtown. i got upgraded to a beautiful harpa view suite AS a bonvoy ambassador, VERY nice. The suite had heated bathroom floors, a comfortable bed, and coffee and tea. it was a terrific experience!

the Valet parking costs around $50 a day. i think it IS better to use the Easy Park app and park in the nearby P3 lot for around $8 a day. this is the better option!
