There was no soap or shampoo in shower - luckily I had travel size. When I told the front desk, they just said "I will let them know". There is no free breakfast, no zero beer at bar and no place to get any good snack type foods.

Clean, large room with a great shower. The staff were extremely accommodating and upgraded our room to an easy access bathroom to help my friend who had injured her leg. The airport shuttle was on time and seamless in getting us to the airport for our early morning flight. Definitely a perfect choice for an airport hotel.
