Disliked: Amenities
Due to booking the wrong location I did not stay in this hotel at all but was still charged because the front desk clerk told me I had to cancel with expedia. I was charged for one night. Its really not fair because I didnt stay there at all. Besides the front desk clerk had a nasty attitude.
I liked that it was convenient. Easy access to the highway and local shopping. Was very close to a friend I was visiting. Ice make did stop working during my stay. Breakfast was a little cold when I tried it around 8 am.
