The Bad
Some guests complained about certain aspects of this hotel and extra charges for some services generated many negative reactions.
Typically guests were concerned about the extra cost of parking however many guests also complained about the cost of Internet. These guests generally felt that one or both of these services should have been included in their room rates and perhaps it's not surprising that the hotel did not receive many compliments for value.
Occasionally a guest complained about parking for reasons other than the cost. For example, multiple guests described parking their car and then having a long trek back to the hotel.
The food at the restaurant was also described as "pricey" or expensive at times. Multiple guests specifically said that the food quality did not meet their expectations and room service food failed to impress a couple guests.
Occasionally a guest also complained about the pool at the hotel not being open. It was an outdoor pool and that meant it was subject to seasonal usage.
