Disliked: Amenities
The room looks worse in person. The bedding doesn’t look like photos, the art was missing from the walls and fixtures are hanging on by a thread. The room feels and is tight, you have to walk kinda sideways to fit between the bed and the tv console. The fridge on occasion makes a loud knocking sound. Bathroom soap is tiny and the two shampoo containers in the shower were both out. The free breakfast is terrible but I knew that from other reviews, would it kill them to have some fruit? The pros are easy parking, and the price. You get what you pay for, don’t fall for the photos like I did.

Check in went smooth. Room 104 can use a deep clean. There was hair in the shower. Some mold growth in the corner of the sink under the countertop, but visible. When I checked in at almost 4PM the parking lot was pretty open. After my event when I arrived back at the hotel at around 10:30PM there were only 2 open spots. Parking spots are too close together for a full sized vehicle. The parking situation will prevent me from staying there again.

The room was super clean. My family and I stayed 3 nights and each morning the cleaning ladies came and cleaned our room and we’d come back from our busy days to a brand new room each time. Staff was amazing, spot was good and not too far from the main attractions or stores for last minute purchases

Something else my stay is just fine besides walking across town with two heavy bags just to get to the hotel and the want a deposit that I didn't have so it took me an hour and a half two hours to find the money for the deposit that I didn't see specified on the app so after I found out it was I had a really good stay it needs to be posted and bigger letters or something that there's a deposit before you get here so you don't walk across town tired hot and want to rest and your back is killing you because of your bags and you can't even relax because you don't you can't get the room
