An fyi if you’re arriving in the evening: there is no dedicated shuttle driver, so the front desk person has to clear check-ins before they will close the front desk and leave to pick you up at the airport. My wait for shuttle pick up was 40 minutes. I could have simply kept my rental overnight and returned it in the morning if I had known this. Also, it was weird sitting completely alone outside after dark waiting for the shuttle. The airport was deserted outside while I waited. Not saying I felt unsafe, but it was unnerving. Just be aware shuttle pickup can take a very long time.

The staff are very friendly but the hotel smells and the carpets / walls are in desperate need of repair. I question if the rooms are actually being cleaned ...there were items left in the room from a previous guest that should have been found by the housekeeper but weren't ...one can only wonder if they are cleaning the rooms or making them look as though they are cleaned

Room was dated, very worn out, carpet stained, drain in shower very slow to drain, standing in water while taking a shower. All desk tops were water stained, ceiling looked like water leaked through. Stains on white sheets as well. Beds were so soft, worn out feeling. Did not sleep well.

We requested a king bed with a crib for our 2 month old over the phone and they confirmed it, but when we arrived they had not changed or noted our request and all rooms were booked for a crib. Shuttle was easy, but they didn’t cleans rooms throughout the stay. Had to ask for new towels.

AC fan in too ran constantly, bed was very uncomfortable, breakfast was ok but staff hovered, not one ice machine worked- had to get ice from bar or breakfast staff, front desk clerks were great, parking was easy and sufficient, housekeeping was hit or miss and not at all on our last day, we appreciated the security on sight since the hotel was in a shady area.

Disliked: Staff & service
I waited 55 minutes after I called for the shuttle to come 1 mile to pick me up. The driver claims she was covering the front desk and there was nobody else to assist her. When I arrived there was somebody behind the front desk. I asked both of the staff to please put in a 4 AM wake up call. It never came. I stayed four nights and the first morning my room was clean, but after that it was not. I asked at the front desk and they said I had to specifically ask for it to be clean so I did For after the third night and again it was not clean. I had three days worth of dirty towels in my room. My little coffee pot in the room didn’t work the first morning so they replaced it, but they didn’t give me any more coffee pots and because my room wasn’t serviced I was not supplied with that as well. Overall, it was not a good experience and I don’t believe I will stay there again.

We stayed there for 4 nights. They never cleaned the room the entire time. We went to the desk and asked for the room to be cleaned 2 mornings in a row and it still wasn't clean. We booked this hotel because they advertise 24 hour airport shuttle service. The service ended at 10pm. Very disappointing experience.

Amazing staff! From check in, to breakfast, to check out... everyone we encountered were friendly, professional, and easy to talk to. Room was super clean and had everything we needed. The only reason for 4 instead of 5 stars was the hall carpet was in need of replacement, there was a large water stain in the ceiling with mold (we stayed on 6th floor)
