This added cost has been mentioned frequently, with some guests expressing that it feels excessive relative to the room rates. Despite the additional charge, the parking is described as offering security for guests' vehicles. However, it is important to plan ahead, as nearby alternative parking spaces are limited and situated over 750 meters away from the hotel.
