The hotel was clean and the staff friendly. There was a charge to self-park our cars in the large, empty parking lot. I couldn’t find anyone to help me check out. I eventually found a plastic box with a note the said “leave key card here”. I left my card there. I never received an email or call to verify that I had checked out.
