It is great value for the money. It was clean, had everything you needed for a quick stay and close to airport. However, the blankets were light and the nesting system a bit too noisy. I would stay here again but would definitely ask for more blankets.

Everything was great about the property stay. However, we didn't care much for the "rain" shower head. Made it a little hard to shower. Felt like really low water pressure in the shower.

It was a bare bones facility, which is all we needed, clean and convenient to folks we were visiting, with a great cafe across the street. Staff was very friendly and check-in was easy. An extra blanket would have been nice, as opposed to having to turn up the heat, but we were plenty warm in the cool and rainy weather.
