Nice new hotel. Still working out the bugs. Third floor rooms all being repaired so some issue there. We sat in the restaurant for half an hour.

The rooms were clean but parking spots were small. For size reference, a Toyota Camry can barely make it in the spot while giving room to exit out the vehicle and avoiding door things.
