Room was tiny and the door lock had any issue Breakfast was typical, airport shuttle was convenient staff was friendly and apologetic about the lock issue. Didn’t need it but food options nearby.

I like that is close to airport. It’s great not having to drive after a long flight. The sheets could be clean. You can tell and smell how dirty they are. As soon as I pulls the sheets off the fitted sheet had pubic hairs on it. Very disgusting.
