They need to offer cleaning when stating for more than 2 days. And they need to work on the breakfast, the don't replenish food. Some people rent based on the options available like breakfast for a reason, work etc.The air condition in one of the rooms did not work and when we asked for extra towels they said they would take them to the room and they didn't.

Horrible parking!!!

Parking is horrible,came back after a college game and there was not any parking at all, went to front desk and he was clueless as to what to do, i felt like it wasent his problem so he didnt care. I wasent going to leave until there was a solution or give me my money back, he finally said i could park in the front grassy area in front of the motel, yes, motel, this is definetly not a hotel, but i paid 220 for for one night thinking it was a nicer hotel! Not worth it at all!!! But its done, will definetly not stay here again for rhat price, my fault, should have researched better!!
