Room was clean, coffee was available in room. The hotel was less than half full but was given a room overlooking the beautiful parking lot! Yes it was close to departure area but was it worth it? NO...When we booked 10 months prior we asked for as high up as possible...they gave up the 1st floor above guest services. There was a lady behind the check in desk but ushered us over to the check in kiosk-- no customer service at all unfortunately I guess thia is how things are now.
