The Bad
There were a few nitpicks and complaints found online.

Some felt the rooms or hotel were a little dated.

Occasionally guests complained of hearing traffic noise from the lower floors.

Underground parking was very tight for larger vehicles, but guests could also park above ground.

Some recent nitpicks were: TV channels desired were not available (couldn’t watch NHL or MLB games), no on-site pool (passes were provided for the YMCA), no bathtub in the room and no pay-per-view movies were available.
