There is no parking for the vehicle at the hotel. You have to park your vehicle across the street at a public parking lot . You don’t have to pay for it if you are staying at the hotel but it was inconvenient not to have the car there. The breakfast was good and room was nice. It’s downtown so it’s near everything

The staff was very helpful. However, I ' ve stayed at this hotel several times in the past and there's something different. 1- I used to park across the street without a problem. Yesterday they told me that costumers of the hotel had to park on the 3rd floor. That was totally inconvenient. 2- The lighting in the room is too low and there's no way to make brighter. 3- The bathroom door was hard to open from the inside, I had to call my wife to open it from the outside. 4- I don't recall it to be so noisy, the tenants of 201 were makin up and I couldn't sleep from all their noises of extreme pleasure! 5- The breakfast was not very good but, I did like the coffee! Conclusion , this hotel has become like the others (one night stand). I don't think I would stay here again and definitely will not recommend to anyone!

I booked a room with two beds, and the hotel did not provide what I reserved. Because of this, I had to pay extra to get the room I needed. Expedia also charged the full amount using my Rewards, and I still have no resolution while Expedia and the hotel “figure it out.” This is unacceptable. I would not stay here again.
