Not too happy. The maid service never showed up on Saturday. I left my room at 10am and got back at 3pm no service. I also am very disappointed I had to pay for parking. In everything I read it said self park. Self park does not mean $10 a night! Overall ok but very disappointed.

The staff members were amazing!!! Any staff member I interacted with during my stay was super sweet, kind and very helpful. The breakfast was up kept well a lot of options and the area to eight was very nice with TVs and a lot of tables even had an outside area that was very nice as well and was clean. Now, however, for my room, it wasn’t as clean. There was stains on the walls the floor was dirty still. The sheets had some stains. So I know that room wasn’t actually clean properly. Overall, it was a great stay apart from those things I debated on bringing it up to the front desk, person and fussing about it, but I was only staying the one night and just decided to buy my own cleaning products while they’re cleaning it up a little bit. I will say one of our TVs in the room didn’t work properly. Also, the elevator was very loud and kind of sketchy.
