Good deal for our budget.
Pros:

Clean, convenient

Cons:

The separate shower/bathroom setup was weird to me in the suite we had. Having the sink/counter outside the shower room was inconvenient.

Will try to find somewhere with more comfortable beds and better continental breakfast area.
Pros:

Nice room.

Cons:

Bed was very hard.
Did not have good TV channels.
Breakfast area was not big enough and not set up right. Waffle iron should not gave been first of course we didn’t get to eat because of the greedy school kids were not letting any one else get to the food. We had to leave to get breakfast.
Elevator was very slow.
No ice or vending machine on the 4th floor.

Terrible, refused to stay
Pros:

Nothing

Cons:

Wound up going to another hotel. Booked 2 rooms and upon entering the rooms, it was clear that they had not been cleaned. Floors were filthy and need vacuuming. One of the beds had male ejaculate on it. The refrigerator rattled very loud. A dresser was held together with electrical tape and was attempted to be leveled using folded paper. Also, the entire hotel had an unpleasant smell.

The bathroom was small and we thought we had a sleeper sofa in our room and it was not. But the stay was okay, we would stay there again
