Check-out time is 12:00 pm. When checking out of The Hotel your white parking garage key card will remain active long enough for you to exit the garage. Guests can leave the room keys in their guest room, or drop them at the convenient key-drop locations in the lobby, but take the parking garage key card with you so you can use it to exit the garage. Please provide your room number to the desk or call down to let us know you are checking-out and we will email you a receipt for a touchless check-out experience.
After scanning your card at the gate to make your final exit, please deposit your key card in the drop box, located at the exit gate.
