Reserved online parking advertised at $65 per night. Upon arrival they said it would be $75 plus tax because our standard truck was a “larger” vehicle bringing the one night parking stay at their hotel over $85. The room fee was only $145. Outrageous for one night and they need to state the higher rate when advertising it as an add on for your stay. The room was very nice however the parking left a bad taste

Staff and service was amazing from reception, bellhop, security, all the way to housekeeping. The owner needs to actually invest into the property as the rooms are dated for what they cost. They put up wallpaper and called it a remodelling, but the bathroom is 50+ years old. AC is super loud, you need earplugs to sleep well.

The room was made up with the thinest blanket. I asked to be provided another blanket and they brought another thin threadbare one which was not warm enough.
