    Pricing high but the competition across the street even worse but the amenities are hands down the winner there. I guess you get what you pay for.

    I was driving and exhausted I pulled over here and asked the gal behind the counter if I could take a nap. Offered to leave my number and show my license. I don't even get an hour sleep before a masked man in a security uniform banging on my door saying he can't have me sleeping here. Seriously masked gunman at 2 in the morning!
