Very disappointed with the price I paid and if it wasn’t for how great the people were I would have canceled and found s
Pros:

The people were awesome

Cons:

It was pretty clean but the elevators were very sketchy. Arriving at the hotel is a complete mess and charging for the shitty parking and awfully lame breakfast is very old school and outdated

Great short stay
Pros:

Great location! Beds were comfortable! Newly updated. Friendly employees!

We had to switch rooms because our room wasn’t cleaned the best. If we didn’t have that problem I would have no complaints.
