They charged $15 for parking, even for a one night stay. It's listed as "TRANSIENT OCCUPANCY TAX" but the clerk said it was a Parking Fee. I was told that it was in the Expedia information. I looked and never found anything that said there was a fee for parking. Otherwise the place was fine and had a good breakfast.

Room smelled like marijauna and was very outdated. Bed was comfortable. It was ok for the price. I don’t understand why they charge for parking. They have plenty, just another way to make a buck.
