Overrated
They didn’t tell us about the $40 for parking until we got there. The restroom was too small. We were never offered help to the room. The food was overrated. No honesty in your add.

Nice place.
Everything worked out fine in the end. Our TV wasn’t working. They tried several things but eventually moved us to another room. Excellent service and follow up.

Unhappy Visit
First rooms shower flooring needs to be replaced. I received a text asking how we are liking our room and after complaining we were upgraded and moved. New room had mold on walls, dried blood in sheets and door looked like previously kicked in and did not close completely. The flooring also was uneven in the room, which caused me to trip, luckily the bed was there to catch me. Restaurant served us cold tater tot’s and fries but was closed by the time we got to our room. Unfortunately this was our first and probably last time we visit this Hotel. It was not worth the money spent.
