Not great
Check-in was slow and painful, even though I had received a link and provided all my info on-line. We arrived at about 12:30 and were told that even if the room was ready, there would be a $20 early check-in fee. Since we didn't have pets along I requested a non-pet-friendly room. We came back about three It took 10 minutes to check-in and we were in a room that smelled strongly of pet urine. Just not a good experience, overall.
