Cleanliness
8.2
Mostly positive: many reviews call rooms 'very clean' or 'immaculate' and praise overall cleanliness, although a few guests reported a smelly room and at least one room 'not very clean.'
Service
8.6
Generally strong: numerous comments praise friendly, welcoming staff and specific front-desk employees (e.g., Kayla); a few isolated negative mentions about night-shift/front desk service reduce the score slightly.
Location
8
Positive: multiple reviewers noted the hotel was conveniently located and close to events; some mentions of street noise but location is overall favorable.
Room Quality
7.8
Mixed: rooms are frequently described as comfortable, quiet, and well-appointed (USB ports, good temperature, easy remote), but pillows received repeated complaints and at least one report of an unpleasant room smell.
Amenities
7.2
Adequate: guests appreciated fresh-baked cookies, snacks/drinks, a clean pool and helpful in-room features, but there were service issues (only one working ice machine) and some inconsistency in breakfast temperature/offerings.
Value for Money
6.4
Below target: a few guests questioned value (mention of paying over $200 and expecting better amenities) and one had a stressful payment/check-in system issue, lowering perceived value.
Food and Beverage
8
Mostly positive: breakfast is frequently praised ('great', 'never disappointing') though a few guests mentioned cold items or unappetizing oatmeal.
Overall Experience
5.8
Mixed overall: many stays were described as fine, comfortable, or exceptional, and staff praised, but several notable negative experiences (check-in delays, room smell, broken ice machine, and terse 'don’t stay here' reports) led to a tempered overall score.

Aside from the pickiness pointed out above, the stay was fine.
Pros:

The room and temperature in the room was good. The remote control was easy to use and understand, unlike some other hotels I've stayed in.

Cons:

Only 1 ice machine in the building worked - on 1st floor. I know this cannot be helped sometimes, but as I overheard another guest say, "I paid over $200 for my room, so you'd think the ice machine on my floor would work." That was a good point. The pillows are uncomfortable to me; they are either too poofy or too flat. Also, the oatmeal looked unappetizing. That's what I wanted to eat, but it looked simultaneously gloopy and chunky - gross.

Pros:

When we arrived at 3 (check in time), we were told there weren’t any rooms clean yet. We had to wait an hour to check in. Then, when we got a room, the smell was awful.
