Horrible hotel!
Pros:

Terrible experience! Unfriendly staff. Bathroom in lobby had no soap….the only bathroom next to the breakfast station. Toilet leaked water all over the floor. Hand sanitizer in the breakfast area, the hand sanitizer was empty. Hotel was multiple floors, the elevator was out of order for the entire stay. Staff does not meet motor people in the pool after hours. Disturbed two nights in a row! One at 11:30 pm and at 2:30 am! When front desk person was made aware of this, POLICE were called!! Hallway on first floor smelled strongly of cannabis. Loud barking dogs at 2:30 am! Children running in the halls yelling at 2:30 am!! Filthy furniture in room. No Kleenex or shampoo in the room. Outside lights on side entrance both were out! Shower to at the pool completely rusted. Handi capped lift for hot tub broken and taped off with hazard tape. When checking out no apologies from staff. Avoid this hotel!

Amazing experience
Pros:

I liked the location, the rooms, bathroom, everything really met my expectations, it was a nice stay! I went around when BTS was performing at Raymond Stadium and it was close by and I got to see other ARMYS stay at the same hotel as well, I'm sure it was a good experience for them as well, customer service was good and friendly and quick.

Cons:

Only that the breakfast was served at 6 AM which is too early, other than that it was good.

Great stay
Pros:

Pillows are lumpy. Pillows are not fluffy like other hotel quality pillows at all. The staff are friendly and the breakfast waffles are excellent. Overall the value is great.
