Great Location, Accommodating Staff, and a Pleasant Stay!
Pros:

Great location! We were traveling with my elderly parents, and the staff was very accommodating when I requested a room close to an entrance to make things easier for them. I really appreciated their willingness to meet our needs. The rooms were spacious and comfortable, and the breakfast was good. Overall, we had a very pleasant stay!

Cons:

The rooms could have used a little more attention to cleanliness, particularly the mini fridge, which was somewhat dirty. There were also quite a few children running up and down the hallways and even playing soccer inside near the entrance. While that was a little disruptive, I certainly don't hold the hotel responsible for the behavior of other guests. Neither issue would prevent us from staying here again.

It was overall pretty good.
Pros:

I liked the variety for breakfast.

Cons:

Was loud in the hallways and upstairs noise through the ceiling. Didn’t like going outside to get to the lobby and breakfast.

It was aggressively mediocre
Pros:

It was old, run down and remarkably dated. The locked door entry immediately next to our room on the ground floor didn’t lock and the couch was truly terrifying.

Cons:

Not much tbh. The location?

Still had a blast would recommend staying there again
Pros:

It was downtown and easy to find other locations that we wanted to participate in

Cons:

Bed was too close to the front door sink handle leaked. If you turn it up too far same thing with the shower.
