Never again
Pros:

The rooms in the picture is nothing like what we got. If we would not have had to be at the hospital we would have moved on down the road

Cons:

It was noisy, no one came to windows when checking out, when we go to bed the lights shine in around the door and windows, was able to get 2 hrs of sleep before having my husband to hospital for a all day surgery and stay over went back to room to try and sleep second night and bam 3 hrs then back up to hospital to travel 3 hrs back home, room was dirty and for a smoke free place let's say its not working for them
