breakfast was delicious
Cons:

the plumbing to the bathroom was not sufficient. The drain to the shower was not emptied. i had to take the stopper out so that the water would go down the drain. other than that everything else was fine.

The location of the hotel is very convenient to all major attractions.
Pros:

The staff of the hotel was very friendly and helpful. We were able to check in earlier.

Cons:

The parking was a problem. Only valet parking was available at the time.
The heat in the room was forcing cool air for at least 10 minutes before turning warm.
The TV was not in the front of the bed, it made it very difficult to watch.
The bathroom did not have a hand held shower.
