Nice, clean and easy access.
Pros:

Location, lobby,

Cons:

Staff seemed stressed and consequently somewhat surly. Instead of explaining cleaning staff was running late, invoked the 15:00 checkin rule when I got there at14:50. Then as he was finally checking me in he explained that the system locked him out until a room opened up. Leading with "I'm sorry but.." is not the wrong approach.

Pros:

I liked that it was dog friendly with a doggie station in the grassy area right next to the entrance

Cons:

Overly crowded and parking is limited so we had to fight for parking each day we left the hotel. Even the diamond member(which we are) spots were taken up

Expensive & noisy. Will not book there again.
Pros:

VERY NOISY LOCATION, TRUCK TRAFFIC ALL NIGHT! Breakfast at $14.95 was a slap in the face after paying $170. for a room.
