Comfortable Stay Close to Airport
We booked 3 rooms, but none were ready for check-in at 3pm. We were offered an upgrade on 1 room with a sitting area to accommodate while we waited. Overall comfortable stay close to the airport.

Good location.
Stay was good location to the airport is great. Only had a shuttle to the airport at 04:30 then 06:00. We usually stay on the newer side but gave the old side a try on this trip not sure if that’s why the shuttle hours are different never been told this before.

Nice room.
Hotel was nicely renovated, however the plumbing could use some wirk. I felt like a safecracker trying to get the shower to shut off. Also, the toilet kept running til you jiggled the handle right. The room was very nice though.
