The worst and most unprofessional place ever.

Please don’t stay here. We checked in and the gentleman at the front desk asked if we were parking at the hotel and we said no. We did street parking and he said usually it’s not available but if it was we were free to park there. Anyhow, the hotel rooms are filthy and dirty. I couldn’t wait to leave. We checked out 4 nights later and I got a charge for the parking. Called the hotel to see what was going on and they refused to help me, they said since it was posted already they can’t refund me. They never even sent me a receipt. The lady on the phone hung up the phone on me. So unprofessional. Seriously the worst experience ever.

I paid for a king size bed upon arrival we were notified by the front desk that they didn’t have a king bed. To compensate for the lack of king size bed we got free parking. Although, that was nice of her. I didn’t get what I paid for so my husband and I were dissatisfied in that aspect. We were given two Queen beds for the two of us. I feel we were cheated not sure if I would rely on this hotel. This has never happened to us before. On another note, we paid for free breakfast with the reservation when we were at the dinning room we were given a bill to pay for the breakfast. I didn’t appreciate that.
