Probably won’t stay there again.
Pros:

The location

Cons:

Although the building appeared fairly new from the outside, the rooms on the inside were in bad shape. The bathroom in particular had an exhaust fan hanging by its wires and the tub plumbing was leaking. Also, the continental breakfast was extremely limited and the floor was sticky.

Pros:

I liked the location because it was easy to get to and close to stores and restaurants. The hotel was very well kept and clean. The room was very spacious and clean and the bed very comfortable. The area was quiet and I was able to relax and get a really good rest. I also liked that breakfast was included.

Cons:

The only thing I would improve is more variety for the hot breakfast. Maybe some vegetable offerings. Otherwise, the breakfast was good and I enjoyed the options available.

Not worth the money
Pros:

My deposits for “incidentals” has not been refunded, and it’s been over 20 days

Cons:

Cards were unusable, had to go multiple times down to the desk at 3 am after being awake over 24 hours for my cousins wedding. These rooms were for the bridal party guests and the bride and groom.
No shampoo in 2 rooms, air con didn’t work in the newlyweds space, calling down to desk with no response, no remote in newlyweds space was not provided one, room was not properly cleaned as there were candy wrappers under the pull out.

Pros:

this hotel has been my home away from home for the past three years. Whenever my family has an event or I come to visit this is where I stay. It’s so close to my nieces house and so accommodating. I always feel very safe here. The facility is always clean. The staff is so pleasant and the free breakfast is good.

Lots of issues I didn’t like but I suppose it was decent for a weekend stay.
Pros:

Had complimentary breakfast, staff was kind, lots of good places close by to eat or shop, clean room, room service was fast.

Cons:

Curtain on window is see through, beds aren’t the comfiest, key cards kept failing to work so I had to keep going back down for them to fix it. When I first arrived they gave me the wrong room, ac wouldn’t turn off the thermostat wasn’t working. Tub sounded like it was falling apart.
