Better than most.
Pros:

Good customer service. TV was easy to use.

Cons:

Bathroom could have been a little cleaner. Sound of water dripping would be heard from the refrigerator once per hour which woke me up a couple of times.

Great value and a great stay to watch my daughter graduate from WF.
Pros:

Great location downtown. Very clean and well maintained. Staff was very friendly and helpful when I had a key issue.

Cons:

It’s a little dated and the room, especially bathroom was quite small. But not uncomfortably so. The room also lacked a desk and needed more outlets and usb ports.

Wonderful
Pros:

Great location, great staff and the property was a bit dated on the outside but surprising on the inside.

Cons:

It wasn’t really handicap accessible, however, the front desk staff upgraded our room to a king suite which made it easy to maneuver in.
