Great location and solid value

Easy check in, comfortable bed, great balcony, fantastic location. Excellent value. Some things were a little visibly worn, but the positives outweighed any negatives. Free parking is a huge bonus as well. Would definitely stay here again.

Overall, this place is okay. The room wasnt anything special, but we were comfortable enough. There was a good bit of noise from the neighboring rooms and the hallway. The staff were a mixed bag - some were helpful and friendly, but some were indifferent. My main complaint is that they keep putting temporary authorizations on my credit card, weeks after my stay, and after the transaction for my stay posted to my account. I contacted the hotel about this and they said it is due to an issue with their payment processor. They also made it clear that there wasnt anything they could do about it. That's not going to cut it. It is flat unacceptable for a business to put multiple unauthorized charges - even temporary ones that roll off - on a customer's account weeks after an actual transaction. Someone from the hotel needs to contact their payment processor to get this to stop. Because of this incident, I do not trust the hotel with my payment information and will never stay there again.

The room we stayed in was on the first floor. Images online does not reflect what the rooms truly look like. Essentially a motel from the early 90s. Missing items like a hairdryer and tvs that don’t work. Staff was kind but not attentive. We informed them of the missing hairdryer but they never came by to replace it or check the tv. Also the room was facing the parking garage and lights of guests vehicles arriving in and out of the parking lot was a bit annoying. Parking is tricky, free but the size of a compact car can only fit. Good luck squeezing in. Excess parking is behind the building but they make it known that damage and theft is not their responsibility if parked in thier structures. I was duped into the photos listed on their site, complete bait and switch situation. Vacationers beware.
