Great location, convenient stay
Pros:

Spacious rooms, close to the main area with many restaurants open late.

Cons:

Haven't received check-in instructions so we had to call and ask about these. Once we talked to them on the phone, they confirmed they'd meet us at the reception area so no issues with that.
