Pros:

Free parking, nice decor and friendly staff. I liked having a refrigerator in the room and very close to a liquor store and cute brew pub down the the street.

Cons:

Walls must have been very thin as I heard music and voices from a neighboring room until 2 a.m. when I couldn't take it anymore. The front desk guy took care of it quickly once we reported. Breakfast room was also very cramped or maybe just the people there were loud and on the phone.

This was by far the worst hotel I have ever stayed in and for 400$???
Pros:

Nothing

Cons:

Parking is horrible, hotel rooms were very unpleasant. There were blood drip stains in the carpet near the sink. Walls are paper thin, rooms smelled awful, rooms need updating for sure. Breakfast consisted of pre packaged jimmy deans microwaveable sandwiches. I would never stay here again.

Ok for overnight, but would reconsider for a longer stay
Pros:

Location was convenient to where I was going. Pool and fountain were nice and made my visit more enjoyable.

Cons:

I spilled a drink outside my room and told staff but it was never cleaned while I was there. The shower gel/conditioner dispenser barely worked, there was no body lotion or hair dryer in the room, there was poor water pressure, a moldy shower knob, and the carpet was kind of gross feeling. I believe they have upgraded rooms, but mine was not one of them.
