"This was an awesome stay. The only negative was that an elevator was out through the night and had an alarm or something that was super loud but my room was just far enough away that it didn’t affect me. Other than that, it was great. The staff was so nice and helpful. The room was clean and the bed was SO comfortable. Breakfast was a nice hot buffet-style, and in the evening, there was a drink ticket for beer/wine as well as fountain drinks and popcorn. My trip was a solo relaxation getaway for myself and this hotel was the perfect choice. You do hear the planes but it’s right next to the airport so it was super convenient especially with the shuttle."
