Not good
Pros:

Breakfast

Cons:

Rooms were not ready at check in (530pm). We werent the only ones affected. Multiple groups were unable to get a room cause they hadnt been cleaned. We were told that we would be notified when ready and everyone was told just stand around. Total chaos.

Valet was full, so nowhere to park. Room not available at 3:30
Pros:

Location.

Cons:

There was no parking available for us and nowhere else was even offered to help us find anywhere else. We had to pay to park at the Marriott across the street and then pay again to park at Embassy when there was space around 11pm because Marriott was day parking, and it ended at 11:30.

Good stay, my 4th time there and will keep coming back
Pros:

Very clean and well located. Good amenities. It depends on the period you go because when I was there, the buffet breakfast wasn’t a buffet and you had to order food from a limited amount of possibilities.
