Pros:

The location was excellent and you could walk anywhere from the hotel!

Cons:

They messed up the timing of our check-in and basically left us stranded at 1 am. They were apologetic but didn’t really do anything so just make sure you check in at a time that actually works for them because we got permission and it still didn’t work
