Room good, parking bad

Convenient location. Clean. Breakfast options above average. Beds could be better for the cost. Parking should be included in the cost as they have their own structure. That last point deserves repeating: parking should be included in the cost of the room as the hotel has their own parking structure.

The hotel was nice, and clean, and the staff was wonderful. For us the best amenity was the available underground parking, there was a fee, but it was worth it when we could step out of our car and take the elevator straight up to our floor. We would definitely stay there the next time we visit Lincoln.
