Over charged but it was...

Liked: Breakfast options, location was great, plenty of places to walk and eat, staff was friendly.
Disliked: I was double charged, then it was pay to park which we were not notified of. When we reserved the room we were to pay at check in, when refunding my money they added the money to the card i said NOT to. Coincidentally 2 of my other family members were there as well and were also over charged!

Nice hotel with no where...

Liked: The breakfast should had more options than what it had. But the food was ok.
Disliked: I really came to enjoy the pool but it was filled with a bunch of kids when I went back later. The pool looked very dirty. No where to park and 18 dollars a night just ridiculous.

Expected More

Liked: We enjoyed the fact that there was a pool and the space of the room and the front desk staff were nice.
Disliked: The walls are thin and you can hear everything in the room from the hallway and the other rooms. Beds were squeaky and it felt like the head of the bed was lower than the rest of the bed. The pool didn’t seem to be cleaned or filtered as there were globs of hair in the water first thing in the morning. Breakfast was ok but ran out of plates, food, and drinks and had to wait a while for workers to replenish things.
