Ok trip

Overall OK. Crowded but good. Arrived at 2:00 PM and made to wait until exactly 4:00 PM to check in, no exceptions! However, for a $35 fee they could bend the rules and check you in early! Breakfast was Ok if you like powdered eggs, meatless sausage, and mess everywhere. Only thing worthwhile was toast you made yourself and coffee. Completely understaffed! Parking was $40 nite.

We were in town for military graduation. Enjoyed our stay. Had everything we needed. Breakfast was great! We did not use the pool. A lot of restaurants and things to do within walking distance. Other reviews complained about parking. We park at the end of the block in public parking for $30 a night. I do not like using valet parking. However all of the valet members were very nice and greeted us everytime we entered. I don’t feel $30-40 a night for parking is outrageous in a big city. That price is about average for big cities. The front desk was a little busy when we arrived, but they got us checked in quickly. I would definitely stay again if in the area.

Hit with 40 dollar parking with no notice

The hotel it self was okay, it's clean and convenient because of the location, you walk in and if you prepay and have no choice but to stay there, your hit with a 40 dollar valet fee, because they have no parking, your option is to find parking in the street, the 2nd problem are no ice machines, even motel6 have ice machines. They give a fridge with ice maker that makes 6 cubes a day, what a joke. It was clean and close to everything.

I arrived early (9am) and was offered the early check in fee and I said no because I was going out anyways so i didn’t mind to have the room ready by the time stablished(4) but the receptionist still charged me the early fee and I was distracted talking to a friend in the meantime so when I paid I told her and she was like oh well now you can have your room. Ask for refund and she didn’t even answer so my only complain and just a heads up the parking for guest has a charged of $40 overnight so great I was charged $75 extra.
