Pretty basic, convenient location
Pros:

Breakfast was basic, loved that the eggs were free range but they were cold the 3 days we were there. Could not accommodate gluten free. Coffee was good, they left the carafe on the table, loved that. Selection was adequate if not impressive.

Cons:

The part of the hotel where we stayed was in need of renovation and better cleaning.

Hold the reservation
Pros:

Location was great to our destination

Cons:

Well we booked in advance and needed two beds. Didn’t get two beds. The staff was nice enough to change to a king with a pull out couch but it was not what we reserved.
