Nice place to stay near the airport
We just stayed here for one night after an international flight and before grabbing our domestic flight home. We are a family of 6 and their family room worked amazing. It was two rooms and 4 beds. It was great! The breakfast was good too. It would be nice if they had an airport shuttle!

Was what we needed
We stayed the night so we could be close to airport for early morning flight. It was nice and convenient. Mattresses were to soft same with pillows so we didnt get too much sleep kids were fine. Front desks was nice and gave us continental breakfast items to take with us because we would be gone before it opened.

I’ll give it a four star
There’s only one ice machine and that’s near the office. There’s only one microwave and that’s near the office. Other than that, the place was nice and the breakfast was decent.

You get what you pay for…
First night was a nightmare. We were in room 146 and the bed was literally one of those very cheap spring beds that hurt your entire body. Even the edges were hard as heck. The pillows SUCK! They are the smallest thinnest things ever. The people above us were so loud they kept us up late and woke us up early, the bathroom was also pretty outdated. The front desk was so very helpful with changing us rooms however there wasn’t a lot of options so we were moved to the 700 building. The room itself was so much better however it was right next to the tram and that thing runs ALLLLLLLL NIGHT. Although these are non smoking rooms the person 2 doors down was continuously smoking outside of his door and disposing of his cigarettes on the floor. So that stunk. The breakfast was just bacon, sausage, potatoes, bread and scrambled eggs. Definitely not something to eat daily if you’re on a couple day trip. I wish they had some cereal atleast. I would likely not stay here again.

Not bad overall
The place itself was cool. The airplanes are louder than I expected. It is close
To the airport. The water pressure is just okay. The temp control in the shower is horrible. It went from one extreme to the next my whole shower. The cleaning crew needs to be slapped. There was piss all over the tile floor around the toilet. On tile like that when it stands out like that. Get a Clorox wipe or something. That was pretty disgusting. Totally unsatisfactory!!!! By the way. When homeless people go through your outside trash at night. Have stuff around to clean it up. Trash can near the ice machine by the lobby was emptied all over the ground Saturday morning.
