Short stay, close to family and medical facilities that we visited.
Pros:

Breakfast, in my opinion, would have been better with packets of mayo. I like a good toasted bacon, egg, and Cheese sandwich. It may be available, I didn't ask for it. I looked, but didn't see it.

There were coffee grounds in the hot water dispenser. The breakfast area TV was not working, I was told it hasn't been working for quite awhile. Also, there was no toilet paper in the ladies lobby restroom.
