Pros:

Nothing!

Cons:

Overall, my experience was poor. The breakfast was disappointing, and there was no complimentary coffee available without an additional charge.

The hotel is currently under construction, but the renovation appeared to lack organization or a clear plan. The building also had a musty odor, and there were visible signs of water damage in several areas, including stains and damage on various sections of the ceiling.

The outdoor furniture, including the patio seating, was extremely dirty and looked like it had not been cleaned in years. The cushions were stained, dirty, and covered with mold, making the outdoor area uninviting and unusable.

Pros:

Great location

Cons:

They had no ice machine. For the price of the room and how nice the hotel was you would think you could get ice. The room was either too hot or cold. No temperature control. The toilet wouldn't stop running until I poured water in the tank.

Disappointed from passed stays
Pros:

Location and we’ve stayed here several times in the past

Cons:

Under renovation, floor trim was pulled up in hallways, wires exposed in places, phones in room, but not plugged in and no plug in available when tried to connect. Water was very cloudy and we didn’t feel safe drinking.

Pros:

It was close to some big box stores, which made it easy to pickup snacks/beverages for the hotel.

Cons:

I was double charged for this stay. I was charged by booking.com and then again my Marriott.

Pros:

They were remodeling but all was clean and nice. The only thing that bothered me was the TV wasn’t working. The lady at the front desk tried to get it to work which didn’t work. Otherwise nice place and the young lady at the front desk was very nice and helpful.

Pros:

It was a quick and easy last minute booking. The phones in the rooms don’t work so you’re asked to use your own phone to call front desk. We booked king beds but the frames were smaller than the mattress and so the sides of the bed was not too firm. Otherwise everything was fine.

Für eine Übernachtung nahe am Flughafen in Ordnung
Pros:

Kurze Autostrecke (10 min) zum Flughafen GRR. Die Handhabung des Frühstücks ist durch den externen Betreiber etwas umständlich, erst Essenkarte an der Rezeption holen, dann am Tresen bestellen. Es folgt langer Vortrag, was kombinierbar ist und was nicht vom Angebot.

Pros:

Refrigerator in the room was broken. I notified the front desk and they didn't care. Nothing was done about it at all. The bathroom was not cleaned from the last person as there were still towels lying around.
