Overpriced
Pros:

Comfortable room and clean facility overall. But way too expensive - we paid $500 for 2 nights and for a hotel that's decent but not in any way extraordinary, that seems overpriced.

Cons:

The location is not great - not walkable. Some parts of the hotel are in need of an update, like the elevators. Breakfast is not included, which would be okay if we weren't paying $250 a night. Our main issue was not the hotel itself, but the value.

Great stop to see Monticello on my cross-country move.
Pros:

Pet friendly and there was a bar! Otherwise, unremarkable, but suited the purpose. Everything was clean and well-kept. Convenient parking and luggage trolley.

Cons:

How about a free breakfast?

Disappointing
Pros:

Location - accessible to most areas. 45 min walk from Scott Stadium (impossible to get Ubers, so walking distance is important)

Cons:

Extremely loud. Staff in the corridors early morning (we had a ground floor room)… any noise by the elevators echoes through the building. Was extremely expensive for a pretty average hotel

Comfortable beds. Nice staff. Room was clean.
Pros:

Location was convenient. Staff was friendly

Cons:

The elevator kept getting stuck. Door wouldn’t open at selected floor. Was able to open by hand. Caused unneeded stress. Shower door was not level. Would not close. Had to put extra towels down so the bathroom would not flood.

Pros:

We arrived for breakfast at 940 and was told they already turned the grill off, but we could have fruit if we wanted.

Decent hotel for a quick trip, you get what you pay for
Pros:

Good location to Scott stadium and other places around town

Cons:

Elevators had to be called down due to service, it was terribly hot inside the entire hotel unless you were in your hotel room, and no floor had working ice machines

Pros:

Good location and friendly staff. Overall good stay but I’d say it was overpriced. One bed was comfortable but the other was all messed up. Tv had something wrong with it and ac made a load noise every time it ran. Overall it was good but like I said, overpriced
