Very clean rooms - courteous front desk personnel. Left my Apple Ear Pods in the room by mistake when we checked out and didn’t realize it immediately. Front desk called me and they’re holding them for me for a friend to pick up. Honest staff - what more can you ask? Third time staying there in last two months and been perfect each time. Highly recommend.

Decent option for a pre-flight night.

I stayed here for a night just before an early morning flight. The late check-in process was easy, and after informing the front desk that I would need the shuttle in the morning, I was told to be there approximately 10 minutes before the top of the hour. Entering my room, I noticed a slight odor that I fairly quickly went nose blind to, but it was initially off-putting. That aside the bed was comfortable, the digital thermostat was easy to use, and the channel selection was fine. Trying to go to sleep was not the easiest experience. There were a couple of late flights that passed overhead. Not the hotel's fault, just unfortunate positioning of the building. The next morning, the airport shuttle was actually early, and I was able to depart earlier than I had anticipated since I was the only passenger. The ride was quick, easy, and professional. Not sure if I'd stay here again due to the late noise, but otherwise a fine experience.

I am not sure if it was just this hotel or the brand, but the walk in "wet" bathroom is a lawsuit waiting to happen. The shower didn't have a lip to it to stop water from going all over the bathroom, so after you shower, you have to be careful not to bust your head open. There were stains on the sheets, towels and the bottom foot railing. The foot railing stain looked like dry blood.

The gal at the front desk that checked us in acted bothered to have to help us. I witnessed her act like that to the guests after us as well. I had to go back down and ask a question and thankfully there was another woman at the counter that was extremely friendly and helpful.

Check in was easy, staff was nice, free parking, and free airport shuttle. The breakfast was easy and tasty. Only thing I can say bad is that when we first checked in we needed new towels because the ones that came with the room didn't seem clean. Other than that everything else was fine.

Nothing exciting or impressive. Room was mostly clean, but had a musty/mildew smell. Vanity area does not have a door for privacy. The tub & toilet are behind a door. Tub did not drain well. Breakfast was the usual hotel spread, but eggs looked like tiny pieces of egg chopped up-it was odd. Everything looked dried up and flaky. Noise wasn't terrible being so close to the airport. Don't expect to take a Lyft anywhere without it being outrageous.
