Lots going on in this hotel
So many kids in the hotel made for crowded entry/exit way also forget trying to get breakfast/coffee. Second time this situation. We will choose new place to stay

PARKING ISSUES
The front desk staff, dining room and cleaning staff were all professional and friendly - service was great. Room was clean and the location was convenient. However, the $11/night parking fee was not shown when making a reservation and was a shock. We have never paid for parking at a hotel unless in NYC, DC or Boston. We will not return unless the room rate + the parking fee are competitive! On top of that - four (4) cars were broken into one night when we were there - not our car. But there are no security cameras in the lot where guests have to PAY to park!! CRAZY!

I was extremely disappointed that I had to pay to park. Then they needed a credit card for “incidentals.” And they charged another $25 to be refunded if I didn’t get incidentals. No extras in bathroom such as shampo, bar soap, etc. I treaded asking for items normally in a bathroom for fear of being charged for incidentals. At least there was an extra roll of toilet paper. Amazing. Expedia should publish charges for parking.

Like it's location for our event and ease in getting into and out of area. Didn't like the fact that only 2 carts for clothes and bags for entire hotel. Had to make 3 trips from room to car to pack when leaving. Left me breathless and super tired due to my heart health.

Warning: daily parking charge
Why do you charge a fee to park? It isn’t anywhere near a large city where parking is hard to come by. Raise your price to cover your parking expenses.

Good enough but expensive to park.
Hotel was fine. We were surprised that parking was not free—guess we should have read the deets more carefully. Convenient location.

My wife and I traveled through 9 different states and this facility was the most expensive, even without taking the extra for parking into consideration.

You have to pay to park here - $10/night and that is not included in the price. Also, we heard everything in the room above us…so if you need a quiet place to sleep this may not be the one for you (or ask to be placed on the top floor).

Has trouble with the control and took 3 visits to the front desk before we could get it solved. They were not very concerned. Did not like to have to pay for parking.
