Pros:

Check in easy,

Cons:

Make sure hallways don't have garbage sitting. Never seen any staff doing walk through or going around the hotel, pool towels were never cleaned nighty so by Saturday the bins were full and non on stands.

Didn't understand service dog and needs training on that

Smoke alarm went off in middle of night due to low battery
