Pros:

The location was great. The value was good. The bed was comfortable. The shower was good,

Cons:

The one main problem was, I felt like I was sleeping in a perfume bottle. It had a very strong deodorizer type smell that I just could not get over. Also, there was no hairdryer and I have never in my 65 years been in a hotel with no hairdryer ,had to leave with wet hair.
