The room smelled funny and not to sure about how clean the sheets were since they looked wrinkled before we got in bed but the breakfast was absolutely amazing!!! For the most part everything seemed cleaned, quiet, and extremely close to the airport! Everything we needed for a one day stay.

Best hotel by the airport
So perfect to have right by the airport. We stayed here for one night on either end of our trip. They are super nice and the rooms are great. The shuttle is extremely convenient. Will always stay here if we need to stay by the airport!

The property is close to Danny's and a Mexican chain restaurant that is very good. The wifi in the room is terrible. Good in the lobby. We picked it because of the early morning free shuttle to the airport. Blankets and pillows could be improved. TV had only 2 English stations Fox and Bloomberg. To put movies on the TV from your phone you need an app called Air something which i didn’t have.

It was very noisy. Not sure if it is because of being close to airport but i don't think it was because of that. I think it was our room that was close to noisy machines or AC units running just outside. Otherwise a decent property.
