Pros:

Room was clean, decent size (not huge, but not small), bathroom was relatively up-to-date, nothing was broken or yellowed, breakfast was actually much better than expected. Plenty of space to sit, food was higher quality than expected, and staff was attentive and helpful

Cons:

Parking spaces were really tight, and require a significant walk to get to front entrance (unless you get first two spots), facilities were clean but slight dated
