Executive Hotel Pacific

The Paramount Hotel
This hotel was reasonably priced and nicely updated rooms. Excellent value compared to a few others in that area. Perfect location for a show at the Paramount. Not sure how much the parking costs as it was a Sunday so I found some free street parking but next time would be simpler to use their parking ...
