I WAS CHARGED TWICE FOR PARKING THAT I'M DISPUTING!!! AND it would have been nice if, on the advertising/small print if they put a $$$ next to amount you have to pay for parking or any other amenity, it's misleading not having a $$$ in the description/optional extras AND I SEE CHARGES OR UNEXPLAINED CHARGES ON MY DEBIT. I was never given a print out/receipt.

The location of the property was good, and the staff were professional amd helpful. However the area where we stayed- not main hotel, was old and needed an update. The walls are thin as well, as we heard everything going on in the room beside us and above.
