Convenient location with a real breakfast and clean rooms made this avid worth every dollar.
Pros:

Check in was very quick & easy so i liked that off the bat. The breakfast was much better than a typical "continental" from other budget hotels. Finally i like that they had a pool even though i didn't use it.

Cons:

The room was perfectly clean except for the the shower which i have to mention because its the only place you're so exposed and could easily feel dirty trying to get clean in a little box that has scum and mystery stuff on the walls/floor. Nothing extreme and everything else in the room was very clean.

Cons:

It opened up I believe a year ago or so didn’t seem like it was new even though it was just built
The room seemed a bit old
