Pros:

One of the beds was comfortable

Cons:

No staff at times is inconvenient…got locked out of room in morning when went to car for something and the key would not work when went back up to room…had to wait an hour for someone to come in. Probably wouldn’t even have mentioned it here but the staff member didn’t seem to care, there was no apology or anything. We have stayed here 4-5 times now when we come see family, this visit was disappointing.
