The paper thin walls, northern friendly (which is to say cold but not rude) service and a terrible and inadequate restaurant do not recommend this place. At least the rooms are clean, the water out of the faucet has a smell though. While I wouldn't normally complain about the pay for parking (since I'm not paying), given that it is off the beaten path and there is no real reason to charge for parking like there might be in a city where a car is optional, I can only consider this a way to make the room look slightly cheaper.. This is a business practice that I find distasteful.

There aren't many options for delivery around especially on a Sunday. There is a Dominos and a poorly rated Chinese place. Everything closes early too (like 9). So you may get stuck with only this hotel's restaurant open. They do you a favor by not including the menu in the room (and promising to deliver it but not actually bringing it). The food will not match the quality of your average in-flight meal despite costing bout $30 for a meal. It will also not leave you quietly. Luckily there is one of those in-room single cup coffee dispensers.

So this place is "ok" for a night if you don't eat here and you don't mind the noise through the wall. I'm not sure what the other options around here are but I have to say if there are some decent places with thicker walls, I'd probably try them out.
