For $250 a night on a weeknight, they do not even provide free parking. When I was told that it would cost me $40 for parking anytime I drove anywhere in my car, I told them that I wanted to stay at a different hotel. They declined my request for even a partial a refund even though I had not even entered the room and had no intent to stay there. Definitely do not recommend.

We actually ended up having a great stay here. Property was awesome, beds were comfortable, rooms very clean. Really liked the extra security and felt safe. The only reason why I gave lesser rating was because of the two staff when we initially checked in. Not exactly sure why, but they were pretty rude when we first checked in. They ended up being better when we saw them the second day
