Big difference in cleanliness from last March. Not sure we will return.
Pros:

The location was close to the university.

Cons:

Not enough parking.
The elevators were dirty floors filthy fingerprints all over and smelled dirty.
The level we stayed on had garbage on the ground everytime we walked out of our room.
Our room didn’t have bath towels and the pullout bed wasn’t made so we had to call for both. Staff was responsive but it took 30mins.

Pros:

Good location

Cons:

Our room wasn’t available when we checked in, we did receive a voucher for the grill for the inconvenience. However, when it came to check in time, our room was still dirty! The hotel as whole was not very clean. The tile floors were constantly dirty as well as the elevators. The rooms were supposed to be serviced every day, but ours never was!
