I gave it 2 stars simply because of the guests that were next door and the lack of parking. There was no parking both nights, it was full on both sides and we had to park in the parking lot at the hotel next to this one and walk. The guests next door were super loud, yelling, screaming, playing in the hallways and slamming doors late into the night. We heard them clearly both nights. It was really frustrating because we came all the way from NJ for a graduation and we couldn't even get proper rest. Additionally, the hotel room was clean and had everything you needed. The noise from adjoining rooms is my biggest complaint.

This was our stay 2nd at this location - we stayed back in July also. This visit was lacking. Our room was 106. It had a stale smell.. like the carpets needed a good cleaning. We had several issues with the room being just doors down from the laundry room and the rear exit. Too much foot traffic and talking. Doors slammed shut HArd all during the night as people went in and out of their rooms. Then in the morning, housekeeping banged the vacuum against the door several times while vacuuming the hallway. It just wasn't a pleasant stay! My husband and I are tired because of all the noise and disturbance in the hall during the night.
