It was a good value as compared to other choices.
Pros:

Quiet and clean

Cons:

Air conditioner was loud for me. Also, seemed air conditioner could be cooler. Beds could be more comfortable. Window needed a darkening shade.

Place closed down; we had to drive back home in the dark through construction on highway.
Pros:

When we arrived, the place was locked down and not in operation. We were stiffed. We had booked and paid through booking.com and lost our money and had no lodging.

Cons:

The entire experience was a horror. No place to stay. No reimbursement. No help from booking.com

It was a good location, a pleasant suite to stay in, and we'd stay there again.
Pros:

Very comfortable, very clean, spacious, reasonably well-stocked kitchen. We had good control over the heating and cooling. The bed was comfortable and had extra blankets available. We appreciated that we could open the windows for fresh air. We had what we needed for our stay. Check-in and check-out was easy and well-explained.

Cons:

Lights over sink didn't work, so that part of the kitchen was dark, making it harder to see if we washed the dishes well. The building overall could use more care, but I'm assuming it's not cost-effective to do so. No staff on site most of the time. Again, probably not cost-effective at least during this time of year.

After some difficulty getting in to the hotel, we loved the facilities and location.
Pros:

Beautiful historic hotel with comfortable beds in a very clean room. Nice bathroom. Excellent location with many nearby restaurants to choose from. I'll definitely stay here again.

Cons:

The check-in process was pretty mysterious. The email I'd received did not explain that I needed to go to another location to pick up my keys and keypad codes. I had to find that out from the waitress at a nearby bar! Had she not known, we would not have been able to get into the hotel, as there is no desk staff there.

Never again
Pros:

Fantastic location. Very clean

Cons:

I ask for a kitchenette. The picture with the description of the room was showing a stove. Having diabetes my niece and I have to prepare our meals carefully. Their description of a kitchenette is a coffee pot and a microwave. Ihad this pland for two years and this is the only place that says a kitchenette is a coffee maker and a microwave. The place was great but not what I was expecting to get EXPECTING a place to fix our food.
I would never stay there again or recommend it to anyone because of deception of showing a stove and saying that's not what we ask for.
