You get what you pay for…
First night was a nightmare. We were in room 146 and the bed was literally one of those very cheap spring beds that hurt your entire body. Even the edges were hard as heck. The pillows SUCK! They are the smallest thinnest things ever. The people above us were so loud they kept us up late and woke us up early, the bathroom was also pretty outdated. The front desk was so very helpful with changing us rooms however there wasn’t a lot of options so we were moved to the 700 building. The room itself was so much better however it was right next to the tram and that thing runs ALLLLLLLL NIGHT. Although these are non smoking rooms the person 2 doors down was continuously smoking outside of his door and disposing of his cigarettes on the floor. So that stunk. The breakfast was just bacon, sausage, potatoes, bread and scrambled eggs. Definitely not something to eat daily if you’re on a couple day trip. I wish they had some cereal atleast. I would likely not stay here again.

Not bad overall
The place itself was cool. The airplanes are louder than I expected. It is close To the airport. The water pressure is just okay. The temp control in the shower is horrible. It went from one extreme to the next my whole shower. The cleaning crew needs to be slapped. There was piss all over the tile floor around the toilet. On tile like that when it stands out like that. Get a Clorox wipe or something. That was pretty disgusting. Totally unsatisfactory!!!! By the way. When homeless people go through your outside trash at night. Have stuff around to clean it up. Trash can near the ice machine by the lobby was emptied all over the ground Saturday morning.
First thing that popped out entering the restroom.
No excuse!!!!!
