"This hotel charges $20 per day for parking and $35 per day resort fee. This adds a lot to your bill especially when you are not using the amenities included in the resort fee. A group of 4 of us went to the bar which doesn't open to 3 pm. We waited until it opened and the staff was not friendly nor provided much service. Exterior of the hotel looks dated."
