The room was up-to-date, bed was comfortable and everything was clean. Staff was attentive and friendly. The breakfast provided was also a decent meal with alternatives. Right across the street from the airport and close to downtown. My only concern was there was minimal linens and the lock on the door got stuck a few times.

We selected this hotel for the airport shuttle specifically. However, no shuttle ever came. We called over and over and the call wouldn't even go through. We ended up calling a Lyft. Other people behind us at the check in desk said the same. However check in and room were fine.
