The suite was spacious and well laid out. The breakfast and the happy hour snacks were substantial enough to skip dinner. The negatives were excessive traffic noise (you'll need earplugs to sleep) a room safe that did not work, and a dishwasher that was never installed properly and would pull out from under the counter when loading. The "dog friendliness" was gross. People would bring their stinky mutts into the dining area and feed them scraps. Dogs should not be allowed in hotels.

I stayed the weekend of the Bataan memorial death march. They offered options specifically for that, like a grab and go breakfast area set up at 4am! The staff was very accommodating and nice
