Breakfast “buffet” was not a buffet. It was just eggs sausage and toast or a bagel. No griddle foods like waffles or pancakes. Only 2/4 parts of the four slice toaster worked. There’s no coffee maker and complimentary tea/coffee in the rooms. The shower curtain is too small for the shower so water gets all over the floor. Front desk service was lackluster. And you have to pay for parking. I’m not a fan of any hotel where you have to pay to park there.

The staff member at the front desk was not the nicest. Upon check she had an attitude that we were 10 minutes early for a 4pm check in. There were hidden fees that were not posted on expedia which would have ultimately made me choose another hotel to stay. There was a 22 dollar parking feejust to park in the parking lot, no vallet. There was a $100 deposit fee even though i had already paid for our stay. This fee is returned after your stay. The hotel was in the middle of construction but overall all clean. The breakfast offered in the morning was absolutely horrible. The coffee was burnt, the only protein option was burnt sausage links, apples close to expiring, no dairy options. I travel a lot and overall i would probably never stay here again

Clean room, staff polite and efficient, good location. All good there. Although an additional charge for parking was a bummer, maybe they should include it in the room rent to avoid the surprise. And this might the only hotel in my experience that doesn't have drinking water available. You have to go nearby gas station to get water. Also they ran out of milk and jam in breakfast, which again was an unpleasant experience.

Check in could have been much more courteous. It is better to clarify that car parking is paid (there is an obvious difference between available and paid, why let people guess). I felt cloth hanger in the bathroom was a must have item in hotel rooms but I couldn’t find one in my room. Most troublesome was the repeated loud noise coming in mid or later part of night from the corridor and once we got scared thinking someone was thumping on our room door, fortunately for us it is some nearby room and not ours but we couldn’t sleep well due to this repeated noise.
