Frankly, not what we were expecting for an airport hotel. We arrived around 8pm, a friend (partner? family?) of hotel staff was passed out on the lobby sofa. Place is dimly lit and overly worn out both in rooms and common areas. Room was minuscule, barely enough room for us to walk around the beds. Location is loud and right beside the highway with single pane windows. The pictures make it look welcoming, new and inviting, as well as good value; unfortunately we felt it was none of these things (perhaps 8-10 years ago?) Breakfast was edible, although my kids didn't think so. Beds were comfortable and linens nice and the front staff were friendly, and generally it was adequately clean, but the rest of the place was old, worn out and pretty trashy. I would not rate this a three start hotel; maybe 1 star at most.

We were charged $15 for parking fee. The air conditioner worked but it made a hissing sound I couldn’t sleep due to that. Breakfast was not good no eggs no sausage no bacon.

The hotel did not have many amenities, but the price inconvenience were excellent. It is very clean and the staff was very helpful. This is a great place to stay if you have a late or early flight and need to be at the airport at an affordable price.
