Lovely stay!

I needed a hotel that was close to the airport, and this was the only one that was not charging an arm and a leg, and it offered a complementary shuttle service to/from the airport. I was more than pleasantly surprised at the little extra steps the staff took to make sure we had a nice day, like upgrading us from a queen to a king bed, in addition to the food/beverage credit of $20 per person. Granted, you will spend more than that at dinner, but it's nice to have that credit! The hotel rooms are surprisingly quiet, considering all the conference attendees having a good time in the bar. Bed was comfortable.
