May be my last time
Pros:

Right off the highway and very close to downtown

Cons:

No entertainment hotel should do a better job at attracting musical bands for weekend and week day guests. Banquet rooms outdated and overpriced.

Survivable inside but don't walk around the area too far after dark.
Pros:

Bed was comfortable & there was a fridge/microwave/coffee maker in the room. Pool was great. Hotel was located near the Stadium so we got to see the fireworks show.

Cons:

We rented 4 rooms for a family event & all but 1 of them was properly clean. The worst was uninhabitable due to very strong odor reeking like hamster urine so we had to ask for a different room. The others had debris & hair left in various places, smudges/prints on the windows. Most of the corridors smelled of Marijuana to some degree or another. Parking in one area & hauling your bags is a nightmare maze as the "luggage trolleys" were only available on one side of the building on ground floor. We were required to return to said location afterwards so you'll get one helluva work out getting one, rolling through the the hallways down to your car, loading it up & going back & forth in the cramped elevator, down the halls again, unloading & riding the cramped elevator down again to return it. There only seem to be 3 of these things available for the entire hotel so good luck. They won't let you temporarily park in the breezeway near check-in to unload & take your things up like most places I've been to do but I understand they don't want a bottleneck situation if they're busy, etc. It's just the layout/system doesn't seem convenient or set up efficiently. There are no staff available to assist either so bring your muscles.
