Pros:

Size of the room

Cons:

Dirty and dusty room.
The Vallet Driver approach. As a hotel, they should tell guest the options of parking, inclusive at street, which is free on the weekends.
I did a crib reservation and they didn't delivered it. To find a solutiom for our first night, I spent almost 2 h at the reception.
