F++ Horrible
No parking space was large enough to park in & still be able to get out of the car. They were so narrow. I believe it is illegal to make a parking space so narrow. A building has to have so many spaces to accommodate the amount of occupants the building requires. I will be looking in to that & reporting it if that is the case. I was told by the person checking us in to park in the fire lane & that cars always park there. I will report that for sure. If the building needs firefighters to get into the parking lot then lives could be in danger. This is the worst parking situation I have ever seen in my 60 years of life. The breakfast was horrible. I will never stay here again.

We had no problems. The room met all of our expectations. My wife, who is disabled, fell and the staff was unwilling to assist her, but we were able to get her upright without their help. Apart from that, we have no complaints.

Good and reasonably priced overnighter hotel well situated. I just wished they had an extra chair in the bedroom. It should be standard when the room has two beds.

It was a pleasant check-in. The room is impeccably clean although some of the towels are kind of old but the cleanliness compensates for it. We had a comfortable sleep, the sheets and linens smells fresh. This hotel is highly-recommended
