Decent for a spot to sleep after a late night

Comfortable bed. Nice breakfast options. Good staff. Comfortable beds. The downside is no elevator, the sheets looked like they had not been changed, and the rooms are barely large enough to bring your bags inside. That being said, it is incredibly convenient if you get in on a late flight and need to pick up a rental car in the morning.

Highly recommend

Loved the convenient location of this Lodge. Staff are AMAZING. Of course there's always ONE young lady who has to disappoint, at the front desk! That 'attitude!' Wish I'd looked a bit closer at her name tag. Restaurant is so nice, staff are incredible there!. Food is good. Breakfast especially nice! Rooms are not very big, but the linens are FRESH and the beds SO comfortable. I would highly recommend should you be coming off a LONG international flight and need to rest.

Room was a bit small and cramped with no in-room fridge, but was otherwise a very nice place to stay with exceptionally friendly and helpful staff, excellent restaurant, very well priced, and within walking distance of the airport (what I was looking for). Will surely stay there again.

Convenient and functional for transit

Convenient for overnight stay near airport for early flight, friendly staff. But getting to airport was a problem - tunnel looked unsafe in the dark and gates only open at 5am, we ended up calling an Uber.
