Pros. Breakfast is excellent with made to order omelets and waffles as well as a good selection of other foods. Rooms were clean and comfortable.
Cons. Doors allowed hallway noise and light in even when locked. Breakfast shut down at 9am on Thanksgiving day and Black Friday. And when it shuts down, it's OVER! Even the coffee goes away!
