    All and all, good place to stay if you are in the area. I was there to 3 days and the breakfast stayed the same. Got tired of powered eggs.

    I stayed here about 5 years ago and it was great (I left a positive review) This time around was horrible. I guess management changed. Upon checking in, I was told I would be charged a $25 holding fee and it would be returned to my credit card. Ok, thats fine but this should be stated when making reservations. My problem is with housekeeping. Why ask what time your customs will be checking out, when housekeeping comes around three hours before checkout knocking and opening doors they know customers are in? This makes no sense and is absolutely unnecessary. Thank goodness I had my latch on the door. And no I should not have to put the privacy sign on the door nob. They have a list of which rooms are occupied so why come and bother someone hours before checkout.
