I didn’t like that people from off the street could sneak in dirty up the coffee bar and leave a mess for the staff without any repercussions

Pros:

The hotel was right off the freeway and close to the Venue we were attending.

Cons:

We had red ants in our hotel room. The bathroom faucet was loose, it moved so water was leaking onto the counter and the drain stopper wasn't fully engaged so the water was slowly draining from the face bowl.

Place is better than front desk staff.
Pros:

Convenient to interstate. Small, but “ fresh” room.

Cons:

Requested quiet location. Even though few people staying, we were put next to elevator. Had to “ negotiate” with manager for 10 minutes to get a quiet location and had to settle for 2 queen beds instead of reserved King.

Pros:

The bed was very comfortable. The room was nice and clean. The had excellent choices for breakfast

I requested my room to be cleaned & when I returned 8 hours later nothing had been touched.(Front desk did rectify it immediately). The pillows were horrible and no mini fridge.
