Pretty ordinary - we won't be back.
Pros:

Location met our needs.
Staff were accommodating.

Cons:

Room was very small and dated, the chair provided to sit on was broken and luckily, we discovered this before sitting down (could have resulted in an injury).
Very cramped room/bathroom.
Inclusions were very minimal.
Shampoo/Conditioner and Hand Wash dispensers were difficult to use - hard to squeeze.

It served a purpose but wouldn't stay there again.
Pros:

location suited me for work purposes.

Cons:

The shower would not heat up. Would only get luke warm water after a long period. No official parking spot, just a vacant lot across the street.
The cost was expensive for what it was.

Good clean place in a good location but beware live music
Pros:

The location and facilities were good. The room was clean, the bedding configuration was generous and the room size was great for a family (we had the deluxe family set up and it had 2 doubles and 2 singles). The TV was huge.

Cons:

Don’t stay here on a night where they have live music unless you are going down to the bar to listen and join in. It thumps through the floor, you will need ear plugs or something to sleep. The hot water was spotty but worked. No toilet brush in the bathroom so don’t go for Mexican.
