Everything was great except that we were there for a comedian across the street and we've got back to the hotel the bar area wasn't open and that was a little disappointing. There were a lot of people that would have been in there

I have not stayed here as booked. I called as early as June 2025 to ask for a consideration to cancel my booking and asked to be refunded, because my mother died and I have to travel to bury her. The refund could have helped with the burial expenses if I was considered. I join the Stamp Joy event every year, but due to my mother’s death, I had to cancel the trip.

Bed was comfortable but pillows were flat. Room was clean. Decent breakfast. Friendly front desk staff. My only real complaint is that I paid $11 for parking when booking through Expedia and they charged me another $20 for parking when I checked in.
