This was a cheap hotel option, and the price reflects what you get. We stayed one night and it was acceptable. The room was clean but there were stains in the carpet and on furniture. Beds were clean and comfortable. We could clearly hear people going in and out of their rooms and walking in the hallway. We booked during a large music concert in the area, so there were probably more guests staying than usual, but even though I was given a parking pass for the lot, there were no available spaces and I ended up having to park on the side street overnight. We also had the complimentary breakfast and it was decent.

Room was spacious and clean. Water pressure was not great but it is a hotel. We paid $225 for one night and then we were made to pay $12 for parking! I have never had to pay for parking at a hotel. After charging that much for a room and then still having to pay to park! This is just absurd.
