Great hotel, watch out for fees.
The hotel was great! Except for all the fees.. mandatory fee, deposit, parking fee. All together it was more than the room itself.

Breakfast crew did not know how to manage food. Was there for 2 days and both breakfasts ran iut of food and had to wait for more food to he prepared...and when food went out, it wasn't enough for the customers waiting.
