The room was okay. The fire alarm did go off due to me taking a hot shower? The first time that ever has happened. The room stayed cold and the beds were comfortable

Great as usual but just suck you have to pay for parking and it’s not valet, covered parking, secured parking, etc. Like why do I have to pay to park my car outside my window. Most places include that in the price. Paying $10 to park every night of your stay?

The door lock was broken and we had to fight with it until it would open. They should fix it before having people stay in the room.

The hotel room smells funny so I had to add an air freshener. The fridge only stay cold for 2 hours at a time so your food will go bad and they charge 10 dollars a day for parking in the middle of the ghetto. It’s a bust, won’t be staying here again
