There were numerous large groups or conventions there. These make money for the hotel but the hotel guests weren't protected from them. There was a prom and a bar mitzva one night. The parking was almost completely taken. I was lucky but normally you'd have to walk from the far end of the lot. They could have had reserved some parking for guests. Unlike the info in the hotel directory the restaurant was closed due to the Democratic Governors' (I think governors) convention. I was also told it wasn't open every day, despite info in the directory. The food that was available was mediocre at best. Call ahead to avoid conventions and other such mass gatherings. The rooms were nice. I recommend you try to get a room near the elevators since the building is very spread out.
