Parking is $35 per night to stay on premises, breakfast not included and way overpriced if you choose to eat it. People who work there were very nice and easy to talk to and acted liked they cared when you talked. But will be staying elsewhere due to the room prices and what’s not included.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities
Staff was friendly and made attempts to make it better. But air conditioning leaked in room something they could not help. Advertising states a pull out can be requested but when requested they state against fire code. Should be stated in the room size when registering for the room. Therefore room was crowded which in itself was against fire code.
