Pros
The city is great spring-fall. The hospital is fast paced and they let travelers take sicker kids, the staff is friendly and helpful, the manager is so sweet.
Cons
The parking situation is awful, either walk for 10 minutes from a satellite lot/garage or pay $15 to park in patient garage (which they started cracking down on). Winter is BRUTAL.
