We stayed here for 1 night on a tail end of a family vacation. The staff were very helpful and welcoming. The rooms were clean. It is a bit loud due to the proximity to the highway. However, a great option if you are headed to the airport. They have a great shuttle service and offered a to go breakfast for early flights out. Always a good sign when you see many flight crews checking in for the night.
