Wverythung was great, room, check in, check out. However the parking was a bit rediculous at $59 a night. Also when you put the card out for the room not to be cleaned they cleaned it anyway.
Pool.area was very clean. Small pool as far as most pools go but was fun for the kids

The Hotel is very clean and has comfortable beds. I like to stay here because the prices were affordable, and I was able to walk everywhere because it was very close to shopping and food areas. Also, I was able to walk near the river and cross the bridge to the other side, and enjoy the views from the top of another hotel.
