Great Hotel/Location but no FREE breakfast
Pros:

To my surprise this hotel was great.

Cons:

I hate that the hotel doesn't provide breakfast. As much as you pay to stay, it would be nice to get free breakfast. This makes you pay for everything. Breakfast Lunch and Dinner. Wow, a breakfast should be included with your stay at least. It would be nice!
Bathroom is a little small for 2 people but you get what you pay for.

Great location and super clean, but the noise and the garage stairs were a real bummer
Pros:

Super clean room and amazing water pressure! Great location with tons of parking spaces, so no stress there

Cons:

I was near the elevator and it was way too noisy late at night. Also, the garage has no elevator—huge pain having to use the stairs for 4 floors.

No more Howard Johnsosn's for us.
Pros:

It was very clean with a big bathroom and general area of the room. But baking dogs on our floor were constant. We called the desk and they said they would handle it. They did not. The dogs continued. As Platinum members of Wyndham you would think they would have done something. There are hotels that are nice and respect their loyal rewards members. Not this hotel. Not this company.
