Great location for walking or biking to Retro Row, museums, and the beach. The unit's decor very much fits the retro theme. We biked everywhere so I can't speak to the parking but it seemed wide enough to maneuver. All the appliances throughout worked; we just didn't use the AC unit because it was noisy and can't be moved from the side of the bed. The linens smelled freshly laundered and the mattress was okay, soft in some areas but we managed. Other folks have mentioned hot water being an issue but we didn't experience any problems.
