This was a bare bones property with a luxury hotel price tag.
Cons:

No bedside outlets to charge phones. No elevator! No toiletries in room. Only one tiny bar of soap at the sink, no other soap for the shower. The TV remote was the most confusing piece of electronics I have ever used. I stay in many different hotels for business & pleasure& & this was unacceptable.

Ok. Mehr aber leider auch nicht.
Pros:

Nach am Zentrum zum Essen, große Zimmer. Frühstück für Amerika recht passabel

Cons:

Hotel total veraltet, braucht Renovierung. Alte Waschmaschine ohne Zeitangabe, man weiß nicht wie lange noch und nimmt keine Karte nur Quaters. Front desk hatte kein Wechselgeld.

Pros:

The breakfast room needs to be refilled with breakfast items regularly! When I walked into the room there was no coffee and no one was around to make coffee, or refill the baskets with bananas! For the price of the room a complimentary breakfast should be maintained and more oversight!

Cons:

Breakfast

Ridiculously priced for accommodations.
Cons:

Our room was on the far end ground floor. Terrible musty smell in the room — carpet was actually damp. Clothes hanging ended up damp.

Pros:

Staff was wonderful and helpful. They were so very kind. Breakfast was nice and hot and very clean.

Facility is very dated. TV was very small, refrigerator was a box type directly on the floor. There was no clock by either side of the bed.
