Only there one night. Quick and convenient and easy to reach our other destinations
Pros:

It was the standard fare as at any other hotel/motel. The bonus was that it was set out early in the morning so that we had time to make our sunrise appointment. Most places don't begin until 7 am which is too late for many.

Great experience with a clean room and nice hot breakfast.
Pros:

Location was great for where we were traveling.
Great hot breakfast with many choices and freshly ground coffee.
We needed a room with ability to sleep 5 in a room and this hotel had a pull out couch which worked well for our family.

Cons:

5 guests on the reservation but only 4 bath towels given.

Cons:

When we arrived the key system did not work, so we were unable to check in for 3 hours and had to go to our wedding reception without being able to refresh following our three hour drive.
