Pros:

I hate to give a bad review…I stay here once a month because the 2BR suite is perfect for my family for a one night stay. But our a/c was stuck on FREEZING…tried setting the temp from 72 (which honestly was like 60) to 78, turned fan off, turned unit to off (did not turn off), turned heat on to 80 and it finally started warming up. At 80 it was still cold and miserable to try to sleep. Slept with sweats and socks on, face was frozen, even with our extra heavy blanket that we bring with us., but it was not enough.

Pros:

A little disappointed, and over-tired, as there were renovations and construction going on right next to my building and sleep was challenging. Feel this should be stated when making reservations.
