central locationnarrow accessparking system
the location was acceptable. it's right in the heart of things.
The parking situation was a real headache. access was dangerously narrow. it felt unfair customers had to compete for spots since it operated on a first-come, first-served basis. staff should have parking off-site. It would make things less stressful . it just left a bad taste.
