Parking
- Hotel parking – ONLY offers $45 per day valet parking
- Alternative parking- west of 40th street there is free street parking. Watch for green and white signs that designate limited hours for some blocks – those limits are STRICTLY enforced with ticketing. Street parking, however, might be impossible to find on Fridays because of the high demand from mosques in the area. It will ease up on Saturdays and Sundays. We do not have street cleaning days.
Hotel restaurant – there isn’t one. Please check the dining guide for more options
