I had a great stay. Everything worked like I'd expect it to, and it was well designed.
When you walk into the room, there's a little ledge where you can drop your keys, purse, coffee, water bottle, etc..
There's a microwave in the room, so you can reheat food or warm up hot water in the morning.
The bathroom was perfect - full shower curtain _with_ a liner to keep all the water in the tub. The shower controls worked exactly like they do at home (spigot to control on-ness & temp, with a draw plug thing to convert between tap and shower modes), so it was super intuitive.
The nightstands both had outlets on them that were easily accessible, and each had its own light with an easy-to-find switch.
The room was clean and functional.
Breakfast was fine. As a non-pork eater, I especially appreciated the turkey sausage option, as well as the yogurt options to get some protein in. It would've been nice to have fresh fruit, but since I showed up in December, I can't really fault them for that.

Very large nice room. The only negative is the parking lot. It has a ton of AWFUL speed bumps that can't be avoided. The hotel itself was just fine!
