I have stayed here many times and it was always a good experience. However the last trip I had my CDL and bank card stolen right before I got there. I was understandably upset and it was getting late. They refused to check me in, I offered to pay cash for the one night, because I was staying a week. It was horrible andi actually slept in the car in the parking lot!!!! Horrible and unacceptable. I won't return

"Overall, I was happy. Location was exactly what I was looking for. A few small disappointments: Valet parking that was mandatory and expensive. If I’d known ahead of time, maybe. But it’s not listed on the website. The guys who ran the valet were super cool and in-&-out were fine. I just didn’t know ..."
