Hidden fee
I would have rated this hotel excellent except when i showed up i was informed that there waa a $20 overnight parking fee. There were no events nearby. I stayed in town two more nights but moved to the Comfort Suites right next door - same price for rooms but no $20 parking fee.

It was fine. Just a place to sleep before a surgery as we live 90 miles from the hospital

Great stay in a safe, quiet part of the city. Parking is on-site and easy. My room was spacious, clean, and modern. Good breakfast in the morning. The woman who checked me in was particularly helpful and welcoming. Would definitely recommend!

Concert
We were there for a night with family to go to a concert. Room was very nice. The women working was the bartender and working the desk. She was great and friendly. Wells fargo was just across the street so it was perfect.
