Not good. Even with an older hotel, a friendlier more accommodating staff would’ve made a huge difference.
Pros:

Not a lot other than it was in a convenient area for the things we were doing while in town.

Cons:

The rooms were dated. Peeling wall paper, dirty carpets, ceilings looked poor, etc.

My wife called the morning of our stay to be sure our room would be available if we checked in later in the day (between 6-9pm). Arrived at 6:30 or so only to be told the 1bedroom suite wasn’t available because the room wasn’t ready and housekeeping had left for the day. …what?? After giving us a different room “for one night” and swapping us the next day, the room wasn’t ready magically ready about an hour later. No GM or manager ever called like they told me they would for the inconvenience. So we had to move everything that we had already unpacked. Then we got a call from the front desk the first night and instead of “we’re just making sure you got settled into the new room” or “is there anything we can get for you” we were told “we need the other set of room keys back tonight”. ….Again…what??? We were done moving our things, why not just cancel those room keys? We were already in bed for the night and weren’t about to go back down to the front desk for something that wasn’t our mistake.

It did the job. Won’t choose that location again!
Pros:

Close to where I had my meeting. Desk attendant was friendly

Cons:

One elevator would not go to the 3rd floor and it seemed to be the only one that would open. Remote for the TV had no back and could not be used.

Only one coffee pod in the room but they do have free coffee in the lobby (not very strong).

Stay elsewhere! Unless you want your vehicle broken into!
Pros:

I thought it was a nice hotel and area but I was wrong.

Cons:

They broke into my vehicle while there, never received a refund, even though I was told I was, and according to management, cameras are owned by a 3rd party company, which they couldn’t access. Stay away from this hotel, there were about 7 vehicles that were broken into that night.

Gross
Cons:

There was black hair all in the shower and sink. The toilet wouldn’t flush properly. The towels looked used. It was musky in the room, the a/c wasn’t working properly and I was burning up all night. The carpet was disgusting.

I really don’t like to complain but I had to let you know.
Pros:

It was very close to six flags which is why we booked the trip.

Cons:

The rooms where very dirty, the headboards where stained with grease or oil from previous tenants laying their heads in the spot, the linens had stains and so did the mattress underneath. The hallways were hot and smelled bad. My booking had breakfast included and I think they charged me afterwards for it or something else. I messaged them about it and they still haven’t gotten back to me.
