Positives: Hotel is clean, safe and easy parking. Free shuttle to campus and town within 5 miles is a great perk. Negatives. Room is small. Refrigerator is too small. Cleanliness of room and bathroom was subpar. Late checkout requested at booking, then revoked on checkout date due to conference arrivals.
