The parking worked out well given the busy area, but the lady working the front desk during check-in wasn't the friendliest and didn't have a name tag on which surprised me. The check-out aspect with the manager was much nicer and wish I had that service when I first came in.

It was easy to check in and the room was dated but clean and fine. My biggest complaint is that this is not a bargain hotel but they don’t straighten up the room for you. I am fine if for conservation purposes they don’t change sheets or towels when you are only there for a couple of days, but someone should make up the room each day.
