The Good: Location was the main reason we picked this place followed by affordability. The price of the room was cheap and we were able to walk to (almost) every destination. Where we couldn't walk we just bought a day pass on the railcar ($6 for two people). Staff was great.
The Bad: the only parking option was a $45/night valet. Otherwise, good luck finding another lot. Yikes.
The Ugly: The rooms were disgusting. When we checked in there were food crumbs scattered about the carpet of the room and a massive black hair left in the tub. It looked like they hadn't vacuumed for cleaned the bathrooms in weeks. The bed and sheets were fine but I don't think they own a vacuum or any sort of tile cleaner. We almost demanded another, cleaner room.
Overall: I would stay here again because the location was incredible. However, they need to clean better.
