Pros:

Newer hotel with bar and restaurant. Large contemporary room. Located far west of downtown, so I avoided traffic when traveling west the next morning.

Cons:

It is in an undeveloped but developing area, so there are not many stores and restaurants nearby yet. Otherwise it was great.

Clean, comfortable, just what we needed
Pros:

Clean, easy to access

Cons:

The bathroom setup was weird. No door to block the shower from the main room, only a partition wall. It was a little odd showering while family members were on the other side of the wall.

Comfortable and clean
Pros:

The room was comfortable and clean. Nice big tv

Cons:

Why are the hallways so dark? I have night blindness and if it wasn’t for my friend I would have had trouble getting to my room. And I don’t feel safe in dark hallways in a hotel. Big turn off for me. No exhaust in the bathroom and didn’t care for the two sliding doors to the bathroom. It was beautifully decorated and modern but too dark!

Stay here if you have the chance, you won't regret it.
Pros:

I was in town for a concert this hotel was literally next door to the venue. Very accommodating, very comfortable beds. Easy to get to real close to I-80. Also had Amazon prime available. I would definitely stay here again if I am in town.

Cons:

I liked everything about it.
