The property was beautiful and comfortable. Lots of nice art. The lobby bar and dining area was nice. The shower had standing water and bathroom had a mild sewage smell. The TV did was a direct TV and I prefer a smart TV...but it worked out because I watched a movie that I would not have seen otherwise. The gym was surprisingly underwhelming. The amenity book says they have a shuttle; however I learned it was not the hotel's shuttle but the University. Overall it was convenient, clean, and nice. I would definitely return.

Disliked: Staff & service
The hotel is generally very nice, but we were disappointed with a few aspects of the service at our last stay. We were put in a room near the gym, which is open 24/7. We could hear people running on the treadmill late into the night, which was disruptive, and the hotel was unwilling to do anything about it or offer another room. It also took over an hour for them to send up sheets for the sofa bed when we first arrived (at night), which is not expected at a hotel in this price range.
