Average hotel at best

Hotel is decent enough. Was pretty upset to learn that you have to pay $26/night for parking - that should be made more obvious and taken into consideration when comparing prices. Room is nice, bed was comfy, bathroom has a ridiculously heavy sliding door which was incredibly annoying and shower could have used a real scrubbing rather then just a surface clean. But overall not horrible but certainly not giving it 5 stars.

Disliked: Staff & service
When I went to check in the hotel stated that my card was declined even though the card had already been charged. They stated that Expedia had to contact them. I ended up giving the same credit card that had already been charge to the front desk clerk and note it was not declined. I feel that the hotel was trying to cut out the middle person.
