Great location, and because of this I would probably stay again.
Pros:

Location was great

Cons:

Value for the amenities wasn’t there. Parking was a mess, but from what I see, it’s a thing in that area. Even with the short comings, I would do it again if the price was a bit better.

Pros:

This place is a bit rough around the edges. The downstairs entrance attracts homeless people looking for shelter. It needs a permanent employee to stay there near the elevators.

Also, my room was technically cleaned but they didn't wipe the dirty counters, didn't vacuum the floors, and didn't replace the paper coffee cups for the following morning.

Definitely not worth the price. Stay across the street at the Courtyard.
