This hotel is extremely close to the airport and can be a convenient option if you miss a flight or experience a delay, especially since the rooms are very inexpensive. However, the room itself was quite run down. Upon entering, we found a roach, the toilet leaked onto the floor every time it was flushed, and the bed and pillows were questionable enough that we chose to sleep with our clothes on.
