It’s ok

The room was nice and the front desk staff were very nice! DO NOT PAY FOR THE BREAKFAST BUFFET, such a waste of money for the options you get, go to Dennys. Between paying for parking, the price of the room and everything else you have to pay for there. Go somewhere else

Hotel is not at all 4 star. It is 3 star hotel. I got handicap room with no lock in bathroom and no exhaust fan. Room was outdated-carpet peeling off, carpet budging from many places, broken and old lamp. Breakfast is standard not Hilton standard or 4 star. I paid $180 for 1 night stay. I wish stayed in some other hotel. Expedia members always gets worst rooms.

The room was nice and clean and the staff were friendly and helpful. For me though the bed was way to hard but thats a personal problem. My reason for the raiting is the hidden charges. I was charged over $118 for parking on their property for 2 days. ( stayed 3 days, 1 day room wasn't even occupied.) The only reason for the charge was so you dint get towed. Parking wasn't secured or even have security. I would have been just as safe parking in the restaurants parking next door. I had know idea I would have been charged this. Nothing but a legal way of theft.
