The staff was Wonderful and accomodating, as well as the amenities and breakfast choices.
Pros:

The room was nice and met our needs. If we stay there again, I would like to know if rooms are available with an additional sink located in the room. ie. near the area where the coffe pot and microwave are located.

Cons:

The door to the room was almost too heavy to open.

Nice stay and close to downtown
Pros:

Lobby area was great. Staff accommodated us well as we were 7 sisters traveling together and needed a few things.

Cons:

Not being able to park and get checked in. Details could include checking into the parking ramp necessary to even check in. We went around the block a few times.
