Great quick stay for us near the airport. Our flight landed after 11pm so we came here for the evening. Check in was fast and all of the staff were very friendly. The one complaint is the wind tunnel noise on the second floor when we closed our door. The windy/ghost howling noise was relentless. Other than that it was perfect for the money.
