"There was no parking available at the hotel so we had to park in the hospital lot. We still were charged $10. When I am paying over $200 for a night, I would think self parking would be free. Or at least have enough parking."

"Great room for the price. Large rooms. Clean. Staff was great. Breakfast went fast and had to wait 15 minutes for more to be brought out. Not a huge deal but we hadn't planned our timing for that. Overall, will stay again"
