Pros:

The bed was super comfortable and the modern decor nice and the room clean

Cons:

We had a room facing the parking lot and we wanted fresh air. With the window open it was noisy. Wish it had been closer to downtown

very expensive for what we got. room was okay.
Cons:

Food was terrible, 10 oz new york steak was 1/4 inch thick and cooked until dead even though we ordered med. rare. i ordered fries and got a loaded baked potato which was hard. They did bring me friesII which were okay but wasted because I was full and told them not to bring them out. My cod was okay but very small when I got through the breading. Beer was cold. Overall it was the worst 100 dollar meal we had on a two week trip. Sad part was that the manager and waitress really didn't care that our order was mixed up and food was not cooked properly.
