Fine, the lack of car park was annoying.
Pros:

No breakfast, location good

Cons:

It would have been good to be told upfront that booking the car park was necessary ahead of time. And was required because of the lack of parking in the area.

Windowless box
Pros:

Convenience to restaurants. On-site parking.

Cons:

No windows in the bedroom. The only outside ventilation was by leaving open the ranchslider to the deck where the heat-pump unit is placed.
The bedroom was very warm, so I needed to run the heat pump in the living room on all night and leave the bedroom door open.
