$30 parking and $30 breakfast added to your already expensive room rate makes this place much higher priced in the end. Stay at a nicer hotel that doesn't nickle and dime.

Saddened by the loss of free parking
Front desk girl was amazing. Saddened by the new parking charges. I always stayed here bc of the free parking. I won’t be back bc of this unfortunately when I can get a way nicer room at a nicer hotel with the same rate of pay for parking as this location. It just wouldn’t make sense.

The entire staff was very friendly and helpful! The A/C was not turned on when we arrived, and with the 100 degrees outside, the room was very hot. The A/C had a moldy smell when turned on and there was rotten trim all over the restroom. The restroom vent also wasn't working.

Overnight stay, was able to check in earlier than expected, room was clean bed was comfortable but we like the firm beds. Did have to pay 35$ for parking and no valet, due to being close to moody center expect to have very limited parking during events especially which is why we picked...No big complaints did not look for or see breakfast area...Overall enjoyed and will pick again if need be especially being close to downtown area

Staff was great even when the power went out. They went out of their way to make sure we were comfortable and informed through the outage. Rooms were clean and comfortable and AC worked great once the power came back on. Power outage was due to roaming outages, nothing to do with the facility itself.

Disliked: Cleanliness
Hotel is ok. Location is perfect for events at Moody theater. However, rooms need revamping. Carpets have stains, bathrooms have plumbing holes in walls, mold on ceiling, mold in sink and showers. Toilet seat had damage and it leaked water all night. Checkin black lady wasnt rude but she also wasnt welcoming. Ppl pay to stay there, its not free, a simple hello, welcome goes a long way. Parking is $35 per 24 hrs and the worst part is i parked near Dennys and my truck was infested by tiny black ants. We dealt with hundreds for the 5 hour drive back home. Not fun

Good location for tourist activities. Denny's across parking lot convenient for breakfast. Parking, though, is about $25/day; but then everywhere we went- capital, history museum (very good), bat cruise, dinner, etc. was omni;y paid parking. In 2-1/2 days we spent more than $100 in parking. But hotel is fine.
