Hotel was nice. Didn't like the surprise parking fee. Would have been nice to know about parking before the trip. For the price of the room, they should have microwaves in the rooms. Hotel very clean and nice.

It was a cute little room and our stay was very nice. Wish it had a mini microwave as the only door nearby was a Denny's and not really a favorite. Also, the pool was probably the worst thing about the property. It's right next to the freeway and I would feel very exposed to the world. It also wasn't kept well. Looked dirty. And lastly, the cemetery right next to the property was a bit unnerving. I had a first night experience of sleep paralysis that is rather not relive. The other 2 nights were fine though.

Hotel is very "tired"! Many services were out, ice machines, AC in elevator and toilet ran all day and night. Breakfast closes at 9 AM where most Hotels it lasts until 10 AM. Was NOT told at checkin the breakfast hours. Convenient for the VonLane bus. Hot cookie was nice
