Will never stay again
Pros:

Honestly nothing

Cons:

The fridge was extremely small with no freezer area, and it did not stay cold. I requested a fan while booking and the front desk gal gave me a fan that was so full of thick dust we couldn’t even use it. The breakfast was not good at all and never changed any items, no hot tub, the tv and remote advertised be streaming but it didn’t work and when I called down to the front desk to find out if someone could help she said “bring me down the remote and I’ll get you a new one” which I did and it still did not work. The beds were so uncomfortable so rest did not happen at all. The parking was very limited and not convenient. This place was just as expensive as the place a friend had that same weekend and they had way more amenities and their place was way nicer and cleaner and had transportation. There was only one elevator and it took forever.

Pros:

Clean and comfy room

Cons:

Lack of hot water. Water was lukewarm warm the first two days. They got the hot water fixed the third day. The General Manager stated she would adjust our bill and communicate said adjustments and has not communicated even though she has my email and cell phone

Great location, good breakfast and comfortable stay.
Pros:

The hotel is very well located, friendly staff, breakfast was very complete and has good variety, spacious rooms and helped us with an early check-in for about 1 and a half hours. I strongly recommend this location.

Cons:

Maybe our room was not that well illuminated through the window but it was very comfortable and spacious.

Pros:

Our room was very spacious and clean and I liked the walk-in shower. We thought we missed breakfast because we mixed up the time of availability but to our surprise we lucked out because the staff member kept it out a little longer saying she likes to do that for those who can't make it down in time. We appreciated that very much. The room rate was awesome as well.

Cons:

I don't really have any complaints. If I was to nit pick, I'd suggest a better shower head in the room. It was small and didn't spray the best. And I wish there was a hot tub. I would've loved to enjoy sitting in that before bed. But I knew there wasn't one before booking so I can't be mad about that.
