"Not Great"
Overall score3.0/ 5
I called the hotel ( specifically asked if it was the hotel) was told it was. Was charged $135.00 or so for a two queen room was told that was the weekend rate and got to the hotel and found out that I was lied to and was a third party I booked through. My bad. Was charged for the room to find out if I had actually talked to the hotel the price would have been $85.00. Not real happy about that. And I'm really not happy because they also lied about the parking availability. I had a large truck and trailer to park. The hotel is worth $85.00 a night but definitely not $135.00. I got ripped off.
