Pros:

Night time staff was excellent, helpful & kind, after a long drive I was able to secure an early check-in which was very much needed since I'm handicapped traveling with my elderly mother .

Cons:

When I checked in the girl at the front desk was not friendly, and it took quite an effort on my part to get her to smile and be engaging and helpful, it just didn't seem right especially with the nightly rate we paid she should have been engaging and happy that we had chosen to stay where she worked, not very professional.

We had a fantastic time with excellent service.
Pros:

Everything was great. Staff members were very friendly and helpful. We were allowed to park in the parking garage prior to registration so we could attend a Giants game. The breakfast was very good and we all were able to select items that we preferred. This area was very well maintained.

Noisy - bring earplugs
Pros:

Ok facilities.

Cons:

The noisiest hotel I have ever stayed in. AC units worked fine, but made a tremendous noise. Fridge was noisy. Walls and floors are poorly sound-insulated. So bring good earplugs if you want a good night sleep.
