Bad service from the moment I entered the property. When I approached the front desk no one was there. After a while I saw a lady sitting in the back and I told her I was checking in. She then approached me and told me I had to pay for parking. I’ve never stayed at a hotel where they charged for parking and if they were to they should be up

The hotel was really safe guarded, but when try to go out to get just burgers there were really sketchy people/animals that 1 was laying on the ground and another one was bothering the customers at the gas station! All the Uber drivers we used were in shock that we were even staying there they all said the same thing to NOT go out after dark. Just sad because the place was beautiful.
