"We stayed only one night and thought it was a nice place for the price. However, they do charge for parking, which I think is ridiculous since I'm already paying for my room. Also, the free breakfast started out good at 7am, but they don't restock during the morning and it was almost depleted by 9:00. We did not use the pool. Overall, I would recommend."
