Adequate for price.
Overall the stay was pleasant. We asked for a room next to the elevator due to disabilities in our party. We were asked if a room on the same hall was ok. Turns out that room was at the other end of the building and not remotely closer to the elevator. Breakfast was awful, the food tasted like it has been kept for days, stale bread, chewy meat, just awful. The room was a pleasant upside, clean and comfortable.

We were there when the parking lot was vandalized our truck was not involved but I felt so bad for all the people 13 cars were vandalized. I know it’s park at your own Rick but theee should be cameras to make the lot safe. Our key cards never worker I think we went back and got 7 new cards we were there 5 days . They said you’re getting a new system for the keys thank goodness. Also you should have refrigerators in the rooms. Just a suggestion. We would stay again the desk people were wonderful. Oh and there were not enough luggage carts! We carried our luggage during check in and out because there were no carts.

I waited almost an hour in line to check in and get breakfast then had to wait until someone left to be seated. My stay was previously paid for and they charged an additional night because of a “computer glitch”

You have to pay for parking and breakfast where I thought those were included. My fault for not double checking but not consistent with other locations.
