I'd stay here again due to location

Fitness center is tiny. Breakfast is TERRIBLE. Sugar cereals and DIY waffles. No fruit or hot water the first day, the second day there were some sad little oranges. Great location. Luggage rack thing awful, hurt myself trying to get it to my room. Parking garage under construction and the black guy with the accent DID NOT TELL ME even though I called and spoke to him before I arrived. The parking app wouldn't work for me, the parking lot charged me an extra day. The black guy with the accent at the front desk has an attitude and doesn't seem to care about customer service. The bearded black guy was fairly nice and the brown guy with the glasses was very nice. The park is across the street and it is beautiful.
