We will try a different location next time that isnt near an arena.
Pros:

Great location, decent restaurant on site

Cons:

The unruly behaviour of the hockey kids and their parents. Had to literally walk over children in the hallways. They trashed the pool area, towels at the bottom of the pool, screaming and yelling.

Cons:

There was a dripping noise coming from outside possibly the gutter due to heavy rainfall. It woke me up both nights I stayed there. It was rather annoying. Room 259
