That it was quiet and easy to park. I didn’t like the fact that I posted for a double queen room I and I was given a king room and told because I booked late they only had that one left and that was a lie I booked months in advance and they were trying to take the payment way before I was suppose to check in at 11 am and I wasn’t suppose to check in at 4pm and I feel like they were not very helpful at all and still has not refunded my deposit….

Mixed Experience – Friendly Staff but Poor Room Cleanliness The front desk staff was welcoming and friendly, which was a great first impression. However, the cleanliness of the room itself was disappointing. Unfortunately, the issues made for a less-than-relaxing stay.

Refund please

I paid for a king room with pull out sofa, I was give a queen room without a sofa. The room was VERY poorly cleaned. The was only one small pot in the kitchen. MOST of all I woke up around 4am to get me a bottled water just to find ROACHES crawling on the counters. I was able to get a small clip, 2 of them got away before I could record them. I would really like a refund, that was the worse hotel stay I have had.
