Pros (+) Clean and close to where my daughter lives. Lots of shopping and restaurants close by and an easy walk to Lake Michigan.
Cons (-) It was noisy on Friday night but better on Saturday night. The people were quieter. I only was able to get lukewarm water for a shower. Take your own bar of soap and a washcloth. There are none there.
