CHECK YOUR PRICE!! The guy in front of me was charged $189 for a room. My room was close to $280. I asked about why and the receptionist didn’t have an answer. I booked early and was penalized. I asked again the following morning and was told the same thing. THIS PLACE IS A RIP OFF!!!

Construction. The price to stay 1 night was superinflated due to a marathon in town.$340 for a $85 room. Location was convenient. Bed was ok, good coffee, eggs & potatoes were bad.
