Pros. The hotel was nice and most employees were as well.

Cons. I had a valuable personal item that went missing. I didn’t feel management took appropriate action to find it. I filed a police report for my missing item. I was very disappointed that management didn’t even bother to ask the employees that entered my room. They only stated “nothing was turned in.” Sad.
