Ensure there is parking
If you’ll have a car for this trip, make sure there is secure parking on the property. Some properties have their designated lot a couple of blocks away from the hotel, or don’t have one at all, leaving guests fending for themselves looking for street parking or independent paid lots. You don’t want to have to park alone on a dark street late at night. Make sure the property has a parking lot on site, so you can park within view of the lobby door aka within view of the concierge, valet, and other onlookers. If there is a rare night when the lot is very full, splurge on the valet so you aren’t the one taking the car to a nearby street.
