Everything about the hotel itself is okay - but it is advertised that there is onsite parking… but that is incorrect. The parking was 2 blocks away with no camera system and we were told that the area is safe “most of the time”. I am traveling cross county and I chose this hotel because it advertised onsite parking. Rooms were clean and tidy.

No parking except on the street. Don't leave anything in the car if you want to keep it. Lots of folks with questionable intentions around. Oh and if you try to get your money back through Expedia good luck cancelling the reservation. They make that process almost impossible.

When we arrived the staff were friendly although they didn’t tell us about the hidden $300 fee that was completely ridiculous. Our room was nice but the sheets had some stains, there was trash on the floor hidden. And they had me sign a waiver stating that whatever amenities we used we had to pay for. Also the parking was very inconvenient as I am pregnant. There was parking out front but the meters would’ve started charging us after 9am. Definitely a stressful night. And wouldn’t recommend if your traveling with kids.

Old & loud
The hotel is ok. It is extremely old. You have to park on the side streets in the middle of downtown. The floors creek when you walk on them. The windows & walls are very thin as you can hear everything. They have complimentary earplugs on the bedstand so must have had complaints already.
