Not great
Checked in very late after a long day of driving. Got the room key, unloaded the kids and dog at 1:30am to find our key cards don't work. Go back down to desk - to find out the key reader of that room doesn't work and the room shouldn't have been rented. Now, I have 2 kids and a dog all standing in the hallway waiting for another room.
The AC unit made a very loud noise all night, making sleeping nearly impossible.
The hotel itself was fine, and I hope this was an outlier experience, but left frustrated and exhausted.
