7.4/10 Good! (3,414 reviews)
The staff at the front desk is great, as was the bartender in the hotel restaurant. Hotel is a bit dated, but worth it to be close to airport. The shuttle to the airport was a small bus and we left people behind, and luggage was piled so high in the back that it fell out when door was opened. This was the 5:25 am bus that was this full. They need a larger shuttle for the airport. Driver was very nice, but too many people and luggage for the small shuttle
