There was no one at the front desk when we arrived around 540p. Staff were nice and breakfast had a nice variety of cereals, breads, and waffles but did not see maple syrup, and fruits. Overall clean and safe, but I did hear a painter out my window around 330a going work. Should have avoided an occupied room area in my opinion. Shuttle service was great except for the non service from lunch until 520pm. It should start when check in starts at 3pm.

Notification earlier than check-in of the $15 parking fee for the car in the lot. Thst was a big surprise. The attitude of the front desk clerk was poor. He really didn’t care, either about himself or the customer. For example: if you don’t walk back out to the parking lot in the next few minutes and put this parking slip in your windshield your car will be towed. This was said to me at midnight exhausted. Other than that it was a pleasant experience. Hire right or you are just a slumlord
