Disliked: Amenities
The breakfast consisted of toast , bagels, cereal or waffles. No bacon no sausage and no eggs. I selected this location because i wanted to have breakfast without leaving the hotel. Disappointed, also there was a few charges on my credit card for snacks that i did not take, they said it was charged to my room by mistake. Should have been an easy fix, however the lady at the front desk claimed she didn't have the authority to fix the issue.

Our bathroom had black around the tub. Dogs were in the room next door and barked on and off day and night. Very disturbing. Breakfast very limited and during breakfast the morning clearly came and got in the way so we could not get to the waffle maker. Outside of our room the sidewalk and driveway always had dirty looking water from the laundry and they made use pay $10.00 a day parking which was a ripoff. Pets should have to be on the backside of the hotel away from paying customers that do not have pets. I think we were totally overcharged for the room and parking we were charged and the service and enjoyment we received.
Spilled some water and this is how dirty the floor was

The room was nice and met our needs. I didn't know there was a parking fee but, considering the # of tourists I can understand it. Also, we had to leave early due to a health issue so, I'm hoping the lady at the front desk follows through on refunding 2 nights of parking I paid for but ended up not using!
