Exactly what is needed from an airport hotel. I might have got lucky but the airport shuttle was there for me as I left the terminal. Easy check-in, friendly staff, good room (although a little noisy on the first floor), nice breakfast.

Cheap hotel near the airport. Old with lots of wear and tear on furniture. No fridge or microwave in room, but did have a microwave in common area we could use. Worked for what we needed but definitely a budget hotel.
