One bad egg spoiled mode of trip!
Pros:

Nice and clean

Cons:

The Asian lady at breakfast today as very rude to my wife when she asked for more Hershey syrup for my daughter. She took the syrup out, but didn’t give it to her until after she went back to get and refill the waffle batter first. Then she rudely told her to take the bottle to somewhere else to pour some. Such a weird interaction. She doesn’t seem very happy working in hospitality and should get more training working with customers. There’s no need to be rude at all when someone asks you nicely. There’s front desk staff who checked me in was wonderful though.

Very nice, but excessive charges would lead us to look elsewhere
Pros:

Rooms were clean and comfortable

Cons:

Charging for parking in that area was ridiculous; and the pet fee of $75 was grossly excessive. While we otherwise liked our stay, those charges would lead me to pick another hotel next time.

I couldn't really sleep due to the thin floors so I'll never stop there again
Pros:

the staff tried to be helpful and were courteous. Not well trained but good hires. They tried

Cons:

the floors are super thin and I couldn't sleep until the person above us stopped walking back and forth. Sounded like goosestepping.
Also, the entrance consistently smelled of pot and there is a great deal of homeless camp crap by the creek off of the property.
