We booked during a road trip. Within a few minutes we realized the hotel was in the wrong direction. We called immediately. The hotel refused to reverse the charge. So much for that Midwest hospitality.

The facilities are nice and the rooms are clean however the extra charges for parking (22 dollars), pet fee $150 and the internet charge 12.95 made the 1 day stay close to 500 dollars. Not worth it!😡
