We were greeted by a very knowledgable person on the check in desk-we discussed whether there were any good places to eat nearby. We chose to go to the all you can eat Chinese just up the road. They helped us to pay for parking for our stay. The hotel was clean but parts of the rooms were a bit run down-for the price we paid it was not bad. We had breakfast included too which was an added bonus.

The room was small but clean, the staff very friendly, the breakfast very good, would stay here again. The parking is confusing,, if you park in the lot be sure to pay at the hotel because it is cheaper, I did not understand that, my fault.
