This is not a destination area but rather a great place to stay if you have an early flight. The rooms are small but functional. The breakfast is good and it is an easy walk to the airport.

Easy check in and convenient location to the airport. We got delayed and had to stay another night, so having the hotel next to the airport was the best option for us to get our luggage and get a good nights rest then back to the airport in the afternooon.
