Watch for “incidentals”

Our credit card was swiped at check in and the girl explained it was just for incidentals. Then we got our credit card bill and received a $75 charge for a pet fee. I feel we should have been told they were going to charge us a pet fee at check in. There was no mention of this.

Great place

We were there for the State Track meet. Great location with bars and restaurants wishing walking distance. Only a 15 minutes drive to Drake Stadium. Hotel is clean, very well maintained, and a great value for the price. Just FYI there are no ice machines, but they have complementary bags of ice that you can grab at any time in the snack area. We will definitely stay here again next year.
