[Deptheads] Smackdown Twins are back

[Andara Bledin]

Does anyone down that way know if the parking is actually free? All the
reviews of the place mention that if you stay, you get hit with a mandatory
$14 (or $16) per night per room "resort fee" that goes towards that and a
host of other things. If you're staying there anyway, then it's not
actually free, it's just included in what you're already paying. But I
can't find any information for non-guests.

Also, is it just me, or do three different hotels share a single "self
parking" area there with the Windham being the furthest away?
