I was surprised to learn that there was a $5 a day parking fee. Come on, it's a motel basically. I was surprised that my room was not cleaned each day and that I had to ask for coffee and cups on my second and thrid morning at the reception desk in the lobby. Surely, I should be able to make a cup of coffee without having to get dressed and go to the lobby.

Disappointing Stay for Family
Upon arriving, there were issues as it was not stated very clearly that a security deposit is required even after the room was already paid for in full. It was made clear on Hotels.com that there was a parking fee as well. The staff incorrectly wrote the wrong room # on our keycard holder folder and so it tooks several attempts to get into the right room. Over the course of the stay, we found several stink bugs and a fly in the room, not near any food as we minimized food in the room and we didn't open any exterior doors that could have let them in. We only stayed for 2 nights and the second night, the fire alarm went off. We evacuated as quickly as we could with 2 sleeping children only to be told randomly by another guest that we could enter back in. No staff interacted with us to let us know what was going on. The fire alarm/lights in our room continued to flash for over an hour after we returned to our room which disturbed the sleep of our family even further and no explanation was given in the morning when we checked out. I would not stay at this location again even if it were complimentary. The hotel services overall were substandard for the price that was paid.
