"The room was great...2 king beds, good sized room, breakfast was good. Good location. Only downside was the "hotel fee" we were charged on top of what I paid online through hotels.com. It was an extra $60...I didn't expect quite that much. When I booked there a mention of $9ish and even if they charged that per person it was more than $9/person. I thought it was a hold on my card and didn't realize until a week later it was an actual charge or I would have asked there at the hotel."
