Room was clean and bed was very nice. Parking was on the expensive side but we did have in and out access. Staff was rarely at the front desk so it was hard to get ahold of them. Our TV didn’t work the 3 days we stayed, we did mention it twice but no one fixed it. Shower also didn’t have a lot of warm water.
