Acceptable, but Some Issues Noted

helpful staffhidden chargesunresolved parking issue

The staff were helpful upon check-in. They ensured we had rooms close together.

There were hidden parking charges not advertised beforehand. I paid for parking, but still received a charge notice. Despite contacting the hotel multiple times with proof of payment, the issue remains unresolved after a year, and I am now threatened with legal action.
