We stayed for one night due to an early morning flight. So convenient and easy to navigate the area. Super easy commute to the airport if you do not utilize the shuttle services.

Disliked: Staff & service, room comfort
Very uncomfortable and they kept security deposit.
Very uncomfortable. The bed is a very cheap pillow you sink into and destroys your back. The rolling chair in the room is very uncomfortable. To top it all off, I haven't received either of my $50 security deposits. I called the hotel and they said there was no reason the money would have been held and that i should've had it returned?
