No parking!!
Turned up expecting to have parking as a first in first served as it has been in the past. Was informed that the parking will cost and should have been purchased when making the booking. There were no longer parking spots available.This was not an option when booking on Hotels.com. Disappointed that I had no option and let down on arrival.
