Fantastic budget-friendly stay with cheap parking, convenient transit, and a great breakfast spread!
Pros:

We enjoyed the breakfast and the waffles, and there was plenty of options for the two of us. Public transportation is right across the street. We really liked the price as it was roughly half price of the Residence Inn Riverfront where we’ve stayed in the past. I also like that the parking is presently $13 a night compared to $42 a night at the competition.

Pros:

N/a

Cons:

Being charged for parking on top of the not worth price. Water spraying out shower landed on the carpet. So soaked up with towels only to find brown on the towels. Carpet clearly needs to be cleaned. Also one of the ice machine areas smelled sour. We could not open our deck door. And what looked like we had a windows behind the long current was actually a brick wall. Bed sunk in
