I had a pleasant stay that was marred by the worn out appearance of my room.
Pros:

Free breakfast was good and abundant, downtown location was convenient, staff was cheerful and welcoming, checking in was fast and easy, bed was big and comfortable, room was spacious and quiet, hotel was in a great location

Cons:

The property is noticeably worn out and badly maintained: there were numerous stains on the carpet near the bathroom and on the bathroom door and walls. The wallpaper is torn in places. The placement of the toilet paper rolls is awkward and makes it hard to use them. This room needs to be freshened up to make it look new and welcoming.

Under renovations so will get better I hope
Pros:

Pleasant staff, good parking, great location

Cons:

No electrical outlets near the bed which sucks for CPAP user or charging phones. I also found the bed very uncomfortable (too hard).

Fine hotel in an undesirable area
Pros:

The room had everything we needed for one night, we weren’t in the room much anyways, it was one of the cheaper options in the area. Was only around the corner from the comedy show we went to.

Cons:

First thing they should tell you is that they are directly next door to a halfway house. There were people on drugs dancing in the street, might not be the best environment for families. Should be cheaper considering the location. It was a bit noisy throughout the night of doors and sounds banging.
