It was alright, likely would not stay again.
Pros:

I liked the cleaning lazy. Even sent her a tip. She did a great job.

Cons:

The parking! I like it's crazy we had to pay for parking, when the hotel does not offer parking. I was so mind blown that you wanted $7 or more for water! It's sold to me.

It was enjoyable besides the bed stains.
Pros:

The fitness room was extraordinary, and there was a starbucks in the lobby which made it pleasant.

Cons:

The bed had outrageous stains on the blankets and sheets. The pool water was extremely cold from my personal liking.

Pros:

We went to a concert and could walk to the venue from hotel which was a plus.

Cons:

For the price a Free breakfast would have been nice. We didn’t eat there because we could eat cheaper close by.

Nice
Pros:

We like the location in the lobby amenities the room itself seemed like the carpet was clean, but the bathroom was way too small and you could not be in it without closing the door and there was not good ventilation so it was hot and steamy

Cons:

The bathroom is way too small. You couldn’t even be in the room without closing the door and the ventilation was bad so it was very hot and steamy. Also, our comforter was disgusting. It had bunched up balls all through it, and then areas where there was no material
