The only thing I did not like was the fact they charge $19 for parking. The parking lot is across the street from the hotel. I want to say it's $19 a night to park. The place is credit card only They do not accept cash for anything.

Didn’t know parking was extra. Ppl were parking next to the hotel but they said we’d get towed so we caved and paid. Room was ok, roomy. Halls seemed a little ragged.

Parking is extra, hard to find, and located across a busy road. Wi-Fi was very weak while in room, it didn't even work half the time during my stay, it's so bad they have a small binder on the desk with a 1-800 number to call for technical support, so I called, the person apologized and told me it would be addressed, and that was it. The bed was comfortable, the room looked clean but didn't feel clean, bed sheets appeared to be cleaned but have had there day, the towels smelled musky and tub could use a better cleaning, No hair conditioner, No Kleenex .just kept telling myself you get what you pay for, it's budget. On a positive note, Very friendly staff and the coffee available in the common area of the entrance was actually very good and made up for the crappy little machine in the room that serves no purpose.

The room felt like it was missing furniture. There was no table or ottoman by the chairs. Half of the lights in the room were not working. In the mornings there was no hot water, or even warm water for shower. Not having a breakfast is a choice, but it will influence my decision on where to stay next time.
