There's plenty of parking even for big trucks. The rooms are clean, however they all have the small toilet seat. The breakfast is very modest, only waffles, cereal, and bread. No juice, eggs or meat whatsoever.

Couldn’t get the heat to work in our room, asked the front desk about it. Was told that it was probably too cold outside for it to work and just leave the heat on low it will eventually warm up. Well it didn’t. The first night we froze! We ended up unplugging the unit. The next night we plugged it back in and had heat. We also didn’t like that they didn’t touch up our room during our three nights. I finally took the used towels to the front desk to get clean ones. Also the pool is closed and doesn’t look like it’s ever going to open again. We love the tea machine in the lobby and breakfast was okay. We were happy that the handicap room provided a shower seat.
