Arrived a little after 4 and our room wasn't ready yet. And wasn't ready until 5. I should have received a discount or something I think. I didn't see any mention of paid parking anywhere, so that was a shock. Breakfast not my favorite. Wish they would have had biscuits and gravy. Parking garage was a little sketchy. Wifi didn't work AT ALL. The beds and pillow were comfy. Room was clean. Service was okay.
