We have stayed here many times as my son goes to the university in town. The rates have gone up considerably for rooms as well as parking. As a hotel guest i have to pay to park and then can't find a spot because of the amount of people there for events. The lovby is very crowded as well. Thos hotel always seems to be bustling so if you're looking for a quiet and relaxing spot, this isnt it. It is, however, conveniently located, the rooms are clean and well appointed and comfortable. The bar/restaurant is good but nearly impossible to get a table. I stay there a number of times annually, but decided to drive a little further to stay elsewhere for free parking and lower rates and less congestion due to events.
