Stayed there for two nights in July. I agree that food was not great in the evening. Breakfast was adequate.
As to the water, I think not having bottles may be an ecological think. Saving on plastic. The Marriott at the airport was the same way.
Location was great for me as there was an AVIS across the street. I took Uber to and from the airport and did not use parking.
By the way, they did have great candy jars.
