Great property, clean and efficient for an overnight stay. Longer would be uncomfortable.
Pros:

The location was perfect to get to where we needed to go. The rooms were clean and servicable, and the facilities were immaculate. I wish I had time to spend at the pool, which looked stunning.

Cons:

The rooms. I understand the move toward minimalism, but there were no real storage areas in the room - closet, dresser, etc. I also understand the move toward linoleum flooring as it is easier to clean, but between the minimalism, the flooring, and no art on the walls the room was an echo chamber. Also, I've slept on rocks softer than those beds.

Convenient location
Pros:

Lobby had coffee, spacious room.

Cons:

Very basic decor. Felt like a dorm room. No closet, wasted space with no shelf or counter other than in small bathroom. Only one small plastic desk chair. Can hear upstairs neighbors walking around.
