Pros:

Being able to park at the door to the room.

Cons:

The room smelled and needs updating. It was very cramped. The sheets felt dirty when first laying in bed.

Bait & switch on price & bed size. Dirty toilets.
Pros:

Staff at front desk was polite and agreed that my concerns were valid, but were apparently unable to address them. Room itself was relatively clean.

Cons:

Bait and switch strategies employed. Booked 2 queen beds for 3 adults for price. Beds were double, not queen. At check in they insisted on charging additional for 3rd person. Room only had towels for 2.
