Nope
Pros:

The evening front desk lady was very rude and acted like she would rather be anywhere else, she wouldn’t explain any of the amenities of the hotel and would roll her eyes and sign when you asked. My neighbor also started to play gospel music on the tv, full volume, at 6 in the morning. Safe to say me any my family will never be here again.

Very clean hotel!
Pros:

The hotel is located on the third floor. The building is very beautiful, and the staff were very kind to us.
The cleanliness of the room really impressed me! Everything was very clean, including the corners of the room and bathroom — places that hotels don’t usually clean properly.
The breakfast was great as well! Excellent location, and you can walk to restaurants, grocery stores, and pharmacies.

Cons:

It was difficult to understand the parking situation. We had to wait for the valet, and it was confusing to figure out how to check in since the lobby is on the third floor.
You also have to pay $45 for parking.

Pros:

Location, newness

Cons:

We needed sheets and a blanket for the sofa bed and the staff was unable to provide them. They had no idea where to look and no one to ask. I had to sleep in my coat!
