9.4/10 Exceptional! (1,419 reviews)
Shashi Hotel is really nice and well kept! Staff very helpful! There is a huge parking lot that used to be free to park. They are now charging $20 for parking. Patrons now are parking on sidewalk, which is unfortunate that such a quality hotel is having customers park on the sidewalk leaving the hotel parking lot largely vacant. Please return parking to free for customers. It doesn't feel good having such a nice hotel have customers park on the sidewalk. It doesn't match the vibe of the hotel! Thanks for your consideration!!!
