No real parking spots when you pull up to check in. You need to pull to the side in a tiny round about. There were 12 other people in line during check in. We had a mobility room, it was nice, except the water from the shower did not drain and it flooded our bathroom.

The parking garage is $35 for the day and the parking garage is VERY TIGHT. I’m not talking about the individual parking spot. I’m talking about the garage as a whole. I feel like every turn would take out my side mirror or scratch the side of my car.
