They charge an extra $20.00 for booking through Expedia and $13.00 a night for self parking.
The road in front is noisy and windows aren't sound proof.
In our room, the toilet ran all night and the mattress was turned over with the pillow top facing down.
Do not appreciate that the parking lot has been sold to a private parking company and now you have to pay $16/day to stay at the property. If this hotel was downtown in a busy city like NYC or Washington, DC...maybe I could understand but on the outskirts of Chattanooga, TN...really?! Will look for other hotel options on future trips.
I had to 30.00 for parking for two nights in the hotels parking lot. I may not have selected this hotel if I had known that. The breakfast was really good. The staff were friendly and helpful. The bed was very comfortable. It is a good fifteen minute walk to the center of down town from this hotel.
My air conditioner was out my entire stay while I was on the third floor. If I had working air I would have rated the hotel 10/10. Worker said maintenance would be over but they never came
Wonderful hotel. Only complaint I have...you absolutely should not have to pay to park at a hotel you're paying $200 to spend the night in. You know people have no other choice than to pay because there is no where else to park and you just should not do people like that in order to make a buck. That alone is enough to make me never stay there again and unfortunately I really liked the hotel and staff.
The hotel and room was clean and staff was friendly. The only reason I put a 3/5 stars is because of the pay to park at the hotel, where your already having to pay to stay. It was $62 for 4 nights and then was charged a $50 incidental fee which i have yet to be returned. Im a single mom and this trip was a spring break get away for me and my son. Because of the extra charges we were unable to do some of the activities we had planned to do.

Avoid this hotel and stay outside Chattanooga. Everywhere you go in this city requires you to pay for parking. This hotel is no exception, and does not state that in the description, only that self-parking is available. Also, our room had a bad smell. I will not stay here again.
