Not bad for the price and

We spent 6 nights as we visited family in town. Price for the hotel stay was fair. The hotel condition is good overall, and the staff and service was fine. If you have a car be prepared to pay for parking, hotel doesn’t have free parking only 15 minutes parking for checking in.

LiL Wayne concert

The stay was excellent overall. I chose this hotel due to its purported 5-minute walk to the Lil Wayne concert venue, but it actually took 25 minutes. Consequently, we drove and paid $20 for parking. Despite the 20 dollars, the concert itself was outstanding. Would stay here again. Parking is Ok

Capital Cozy

The hotel is very convenient. It's close to the train station, and local bars. There's an events stadium nearby. The hotel itself was very nice for the cost of stay. It seriously exceeded my expectations. I want the staff there to know that I appreciate the comfort they provided there.
