The hotel looks new. They have a nice small gym and a nice small outdoor pool. Breakfast was better than most Marriott properties. My only issue is the fact that they charge $15 for daily parking. Maybe it Expedia where I booked my hotel didn't disclose this fact. I do wish the Expedia does a better job informing users that a parking fee exists and the amount of the fee. It just feels like a hidden fee that I only learned about when I checked out. I also wish that the front desk person confirmed that I was aware of the $15 daily parking fee. Why hide this information? I am unlikely stay here again.
