No shuttle needed but there is not a shuttle to the airport that's literally right across the street. Found that odd. The hotel staff was wonderful. The mattresses need updated very hard and not comfortable. Need handicap walk in showers. They did have bars to assist in the bathrooms this was appreciated. I would stay here again. Breakfast could be tastier. Gravy was not good and that was the only meat. (In the gravy) could have more fruit in addition to bananas.

We had pleasant stay. The facilities were clean and the staff was friendly. The pool was well kept and clean but the hot tub needed more attention. My only complaint was that we couldnt have our guests swim in the pool because they weren't registered. This was a dissapointment for us because my grandkids couldnt swim but overall it was a pleasant stay at a great price!guests.

It was adequate, the bed was a bed nothing special but a bed, the night check in was very friendly and helpful, and the morning clerk was more interested in watching Bollywood movies clips on his phone than us trying to checkout, but overall it was priced ok for a quick 1 night stay
