It was fine but for the price I expected more
Pros:

The main area was clean and well lit. Staff was welcoming and kind

Cons:

Our room smelled like human body odor. The shower handle felt like it was going to come right out of the wall, it was loose. No ice machine on our floor and when I asked at the front desk it seemed like a struggle to get that information.

Shit shit and more shit.
Pros:

Nothing

Cons:

The room smelled like B.O. The shower had mold in it. The caulk work on the shower was horrendous. The fire alarms went off twice at 3 in the morning.

It was a convenient location.
Pros:

The food was good but the restaurant was too dark. There wasn't enough staff to handle the lunch crowd. They had to auction the food when it was served. "Who ordered the burger? Who ordered the salad with 1/2 Reuben?"

Cons:

The floor of the shower was dirty (black). The hot tub was not hot nor were the jets working properly. There was barely any force in the jets.

Pros:

I appreciated how clean the rooms were. And the staff was courteous.

Cons:

That I had to pay $15 a person for breakfast. After I paid $219 for a room. I also feel like the pool shouldn't close at 10:00 p.m. on a Friday or Saturday night. I feel like 11:00 p.m. would be a little more appropriate seeing how it's a weekend.

Pros:

The location was close to many things (places to eat, stores, the conference center). I like that there was a bar/restaurant in your hotel. The gym was a great size!

Cons:

We wish the staff were a little warmer.

See above
Pros:

Omitted

Cons:

Careless room preparations. At 10:28 pm all the lights went out. Not knowing about master switches, I had a difficult search for the answer. Also, early early am the alarm clock rang. I didn’t set it.

Housekeeping needs training. The stay wasn’t what I expected based on the price.
