Pros (+) Location was perfect for our stay.
Cons (-) Parking was limited and expensive. They should offer free parking the rates they are charging for the mediocre rooms.

Cons (-) I went to my room after checking in, and it was “lived in” - messy beds, TV on, and dirty dishes. I was assigned a new room. It was obvious that the two beds were full sized beds, not queen sized. This was not what was advertised. I was there alone, so bed size didn’t impact me, but the bed size difference for a couple would be noticeable.
