Surprise charges

I stayed here three times before learning that they add charges. Only $15 so I almost didn't notice that they charged me for parking that I did not use, and then charged me twice for taxes when I had already paid through hotel.com.

Great spot near the Catalyst

Calvin did a great job of setting us up for our arrival and communicated well. The heater is a fireplace that took some work figuring out how to keep on while turning off the flames. There is a nice little patio with fire pit area for guests to enjoy. Super convenient if seeing a show at the Catalyst.
