Great place!
Pros:

This place is AMAZING!!! The location by the mall was super cool. The breakfast was delicious and the attendants for breakfast were hard workers and kept everything clean and full with the crowd. The woman at the desk was knowledgeable and very kind. The beds were soft and the room was nice. Tru rooms are pretty small to encourage you to enjoy their facilities downstairs, but the attendant recommended we stay on the other side next time for bigger rooms with more amenities. Will come back here when we visit my friend's sister again.

Cons:

No complaints!

Pros:

Property was nice, very trendy decor. Lacking enough staff to work though. Only one staff at the front desk for check in and it was busy. At one point the front desk staff had to leave and put up a sign that she was away from the desk. The breakfast crew was only 1 person too. Food was running out during the busy time. There was a hair in the eggs.
