Difficult but good location.
Pros:

Location

Cons:

No ability to get breakfast unless a Bonvoy member. Grab and Go was not stocked. Staff said there was a restaurant but no one was there to serve. Staff should have asked to see if I was a Bonvoy member, which I already was. The staff did arrange for me to get free WiFi. It’s outrageous this isn’t standard.

I truly enjoyed my stay and I will be back.
Pros:

The room was comfortable and clean. I appreciated the professionalism and kindness of the staff. But the highlight of my stay was getting coffee in the morning in the lobby! It was delicious and helped me get my day started on a great note.

Cons:

The only thing that I didn't like was that I didn't stay longer.
