I was charged a $3.00 resort fee. Upon check in, the clerk informed me the fee was charged by Choice Hotels. I contacted Choice Hotels and was informed the fee was charged by the hotel owner. I spoke to the hotel owner who informed me the fee was charged by Choice Hotels. When I informed him I had contacted Choice Hotels and their response, he changed his story and claimed the fee was for parking and maid service. This hotel's advertisement advertises free parking. It also claims hot breakfast. The only hot item at the breakfast bar was make your own waffles. They had small Danishes that were rock hard and tasted like they were purchased several days ago. As to the maid service, a cigarette disposable tray right outside my room was overflowing with cigarette butts, with several butts on the breezeway. I will never stay at this hotel again and would not recommend it to others.
