Pros (+) Location
Cons (-) This hotel is overpriced for the value. We have stayed here before and had a good experience staying in a suite in the main building. This time we stayed in a king room and ended up in the building separate from the front desk. The room was tiny. Like NYC hotel room tiny. The air conditioner was so loud we couldn’t even run it while trying to sleep. There was terrible street noise, hallway noise a...

Pros (+) Customer service and rooms were clean and spacious
Cons (-) The 2 separate buildings
Pros (+) Very welcoming attitude by all employees we met. Very clean and comfortable room. The staff went the extra mile with a smile.
Cons (-) No complaints
Pros (+) The room was exactly what we needed. Comfortable, roomy, great location and at a very fair price. You can't ask for more.
Cons (-) The water pressure is the shower could be a little stronger, but at the end of the day, it worked.
Pros (+) Great location, many places within walking distance. It was very easy to get to off the highway, plus cheap parking! ($25/night). Room was small, but had everything we needed for 1 night - bed, bathroom, shower, wifi.

Pros (+) Price, pool, walking distance
Cons (-) No refrigerator in room
Pros (+) The hotel is centrally located and about a mile walk or short cab ride to all tourist sites. It has an easy access to many restaurants. The lobby and indoor pool facility on the roof was clean and well maintained. The noise level was fine for the city. The rooms were small, but adequate if you are a petite sized family. The price (including the $25 daily parking fee, plus additional $10 for taking...
Cons (-) The hotel has only 1 primary working elevator. There is an elevator that has been out of service for sometime and will probably not be fixed in the near future. Several guests have reported this problem since the beginning of summer. Although the room was overall clean, the carpet was very dingy and there was about a 2 to 3 feet in diameter DISGUSTING stain on 1 corner. I told the front desk and a...
