I wish automatic housekeeping was included. We also had to wait for 15 minutes to check in after a very delayed flight due to computers auditing, which I understand but it was still terrible to have to add on additional time at 3am.

Right off the highway so convenient but very loud at night. The water temperature in the shower is difficult to manage, no lie, it was always too hot or too cold.
