Convenient, inexpensive. But the beeping-backup trucks at 4am and 5am on a Sunday morning? It's as if the hotel doesn't realize people actually need to sleep. I was on the top (4th) floor and the noise was loud enough to wake me. Ask for a room with a view of the road, not the back alley.

Meh! Ok(ish)

It was alright. Not too bad but but not amazing either. The carpet and bathroom were at least 10 years old - no upgrades. Also no USB charging ports in the room. But overall it was ok.

I stayed for literally 5 hours to get some sleep rather than doze on the airport floor. Booked the room online at the airport and was sleeping all within an hour. Can't complain.. I got my Zzzzs on a good bed. Cheers

The airport shuttle has a TERRIBLE schedule starts at 5:20-9:40 AM and 5:20-10:35PM. Our flight is 3:10PM we have no choice but to get Uber. Before you check-in call the hotel and for the airport shuttle schedule so you won’t end up pay Uber.

I liked the breakfast, was disappointed that the shuttle stopped after a certain time. I had to book a last minute hotel close to the airport after missing my flight and had to pay $25 for a taxi to take me 1mile. The hotel was ok but the McDonald's next door is noisy.
