I've been there before so I knew what to expect. However, the AC in the old building was a surprise
Pros:

Rooms are comfortable and bed is good. Lots of free parking. Liked the coffee in the room.

Cons:

First room in the old building had problems with the AC so we were moved to the new building which was much better. Amenities are basic but sufficient. No robes or slippers. Towels a bit small but it is ok for a 1 day stay.

I should make reservations earlier next time!
Pros:

I had oatmeal a couple times for breakfast, great!

Cons:

I was surprised that I had two flights of stairs to go up and down (didn't expect that and it followed on a hospital stay)... the maid kept giving me decaf coffee, really didn't like that!
