Pros (+) Nice location rght where I wanted to be staying
Pros (+) Beds were wonderful, with pretty bedding and comfortable mattress. Most hotel guest service reps were friendly and hospitable.
Cons (-) Breakfast area was much too small to accommodate large amount of guests. Had to eat near the computer in the business center. Food took a long time to be refreshed in the catering trays.
Pros (+) Close to town
Cons (-) Not best price I could have used my AAA and got better rate . No mini bar difficult using internet
Pros (+) Value, clean room, friendly service, you can walk to downtown amenities, affordable parking, breakfast was good for hotel food.

The room was comfo...
