Over charged.

The place was cleaner than expected, cheap, and not bad. But our charge from hotels.com went through, and two more charges from the hotel itself, plus we have another 160 pending.

Stay was ok

The room was clean, but the room was extremely hot when we got in it which led to a smell. There was constant sirens from police. It didn’t feel like the safest surroundings. Overall the room was nice but spilled water and when I cleaned it up, the towel was black so they need to mop the floors.

Checking in was smooth and easy the parking for $5.00 was unexpected. The hotel was fine for a one night state for a concert at a cheap rate. But needs some updating bathroom was a bit small, bedding and towels where some what stained/ discolored. Elevator I had to hold my breath due to it pausing a few times thinking it was going to stop and not be able to get out. Free breakfast was wall mart cheap pastries with a weird pan cake maker. $100 a night was way to much for this property. Again in a pinch for a a concert and not caring about the say its a good spot.
