They have strange policy on destination fee. Customers have to pay destination fee and get point. However, the point is little use, especially because you can not pay parking fee with the point. I had to give up most of my points.

Generally an acceptable property. The $25 “destination fee” (minimum spend at the bar) is egregious.

I had an incredibly disappointing and frustrating experience at this hotel, which turned out to be more like a very poorly maintained motel. The room was nothing like the advertised photos. The carpets were worn and stained, and the bathroom, especially the bathtub, looked old and uninviting. The room lacked even basic amenities – there was no closet, just a small rack to hang clothes. The so-called "view" was a parking lot and a wine store, far from the scenic expectation I had. Both Travelocity and I tried reaching the manager from the moment I checked in, but no one was available, and I’ve yet to receive any response or refund for the steep $340 per night on top of $75 security deposit per night and another $25 facility fee per night. I even submitted photos showing the actual condition, but communication has been non-existent. Save yourself the trouble and avoid this place! This place is not near a 4 star rather than a middle of round about motel.

Where to begin at this nightmare hotel. Worst part is their Hidden fees x2 ($25 parking/night AND $25 destination fee/night) on top of regular charges. What a sc*mbag way to run a business especially a place as bad as this. Instead of fixing their horrible bar they just charge you to keep it afloat. No way to get these two charges removed. Paid an extra $200 for the stay without using. Bar was atrocious. Bartender seemed to be on some substance. So bad we just ate the other days of fees rather than patronage the bar. Front desk staff are horrible, careless and no empathy. When asked about these hidden extra charges all they say is “It’s not my rules”. What a great face of the company. TV remote barely worked. I Had to press the buttons 5 times for it to work/ fox channel for World Series didn’t work even tho it’s listed on tv guide, channel had a black screen. Fire alarm was hanging by wires from ceiling in our room. Bed was like sleeping on plywood. Pillows were thinner than a saltine cracker. Two towels and 1 roll TP in bathroom. $3 for small 8oz water bottle. Paper thin walls. Hear walking above and around you like they’re echoed stomps. Hear dogs barking while in your room; was waiting for elevator and once doors opened someone’s dog charged at me and jumped on me. Even tho dog was on a leash. Nightmare trying to get in/out of the Parking lot with heavy traffic and a roundabout that you have to turn very fast into P-lot or you’ll miss it. Would never return.
