Convenient. Comfortable. A/C controls were broken so room temp was difficult to manage. But, being autumn season, it was not too difficult to manage. I did not call it in.

We did have a reservation however, we were told they did not have any room and would move us to another sister hotel further away. This meant we needed to secure a ride back to the airport. So I cannot tell you anything about this hotel but that not having a room when I had a reservation was not good. Guess you have to take a chance!
