My stay at this hotel was quite frustrating. I experienced issues with the room assignments, which resulted in being moved to a less convenient location, and the amenities were showing their age. While the staff did try to be helpful, I felt unsafe during my stay, especially with the parking situation. Overall, I wouldn't recommend this place to anyone looking for a relaxing getaway.
