I've been here several times for conventions and a job fair (in more recent years). The parking is good, if you get there at a good time. Otherwise, good luck. I don't remember paying for parking. Yes, the building itself is a little old and could need some cosmetic work, too. That said, there are still so many events (crafts, jewelry, christmas, etc.) here, like the Bridal Spectacular twice a year- and since the hall is still being booked/attended, how bad can it really be?
I remember the job fair the most since that was the most recent event. There were so many people, looking for a job, so it was literally, a sea of people. Some people were dressed like me, ready to interview, in dress pants and a nice button down shirt, groomed nicely and smiling. Others, were less than presentable, in shorts and t-shirts, kinda like they rolled out of bed and just didn't give a second thought to the appearance at all- but it's nothing new here, some people are just so flaky and unreliable (I've seen some strange ones at my old work places through the years). The recruiters/companies hiring were large companies- banks like Citi Group and US Bank, and the armed services were in full force too. The event was organized very well (you turned in a resume at the front, information was given to you about the event).
I can't comment on the bathrooms because I just spent time in the convention hall. I also can't comment on the refreshments because I didn't notice any stands anywhere here.
