Great location with friendly staff and everything you need nearby
Pros:

Location was great, breakfast and happy hour an added bonus, restaurant food was tasty. Distance and accessibility to convention center great. Pillows and bed comfy (to my taste, husband did t like the pillows).

Cons:

On the city view side, car/trick noises can be a bit annoying. Valet parking only at $45 was a little steep but guess standard.

Good if not great but too expensive.
Pros:

On site bar was nice, place was well located and large. Staff very friendly.

Cons:

Absurdly expensive for the amenities, breakfast was bad, beds terrible and small for "queen" our room started to leak during the night. Everything was an upsell, no shuttle.

Cons:

I didn't like being forced to use valet parking and then being charged $50 for it. It was convenient and the staff was nice, it's just an expense that wasn't in the budget.
