This hotel is spotlessly clean and quiet. Very comfortable bed, pillows and sheets. There was a big hot breakfast buffet in the morning but didn’t have time for it. Helpful, friendly front desk staff. I walked the .8 miles from the airport and that felt good but there is an airport shuttle. When an airport hotel is exactly what you need, this is a great one.
