There’s a parking fee of $20 that I didn’t know when I made a reservation. And I had a free breakfast option included in my stay but the server brought me a check I think for tips. It was a self serve breakfast and there shouldn’t be a check.

Dirty bathroom, hotel refused to make things right. Weird manager and there’s a rude agent called Rene at front desk who’s miserable. Restaurant staff are miserable too and will make your breakfast a bore.

Room was fine, people staying there were horrible. Woke up to the smell of marijuana at 5 am the first night, then dog poop the next day… apparently the staff spoke with the person responsible after the marijuana incident but the dog poop proves otherwise.
