Overall good stay, the room looked decent, only real complaint was there was a missing chunk of the carpet at the door way which if you were not paying attention was a major trip hazard. The parking situation was kind of horrible the parking lot is very small and are first night was Friday a lot of the hotels lot was definitely being used by people at the bar next door, also spots very small ment for smaller vehicles.

This place is a dump and has Bed Bugs! It is right next to a large bar/ night club that stays open until 2am. You will not get any sleep and will not find any parking at the hotel as everyone from the bar parks at the hotel. The hotel is very dirty and should be shut down.
