Pros:

The facility was clean, the beds were comfortable, and the staff was friendly.

Cons:

The upstairs neighbors were loud. It sounded like we had the USA gymnastics team doing floor exercises until well after midnight. I was traveling fir business and got very little sleep. It's unfortunate hotel rooms can't be more sound proof.

Also, the towels in the bathroom didn't smell fresh.

Great stay except for premature lockout.
Pros:

The facilities are clean. Staff are friendly and helpful.

Cons:

My key card was deactivated before checkout time. That made getting breakfast and returning to the room problematic.

Pros:

Clean, nice, good hotel and the staff was very friendly. Easy checkin. Haven't tried breakfast or facilities but the room was spotless.

Cons:

Price on booking $149, $170+ with taxes etc getting charged on the spot $190 and $20 after checkin for no explained reason, no check provided on the mail as promised. Was it worth $210 for a quick sleep? Not at all. No charges were communicated by anyone.
