We had a very good stay at SpringHill Suites. The hotel was clean, the staff was friendly, and everything else met our expectations. The only issue was that one area of the carpet in our room was wet, but aside from that, everything was great. We would stay here again.

This hotel room was spacious and clean, and the bed was comfortable. The area was quiet despite being so close to the airport. The breakfast was mostly carb and sugar items (muffins, cereal, waffles, etc) that I don't eat (my problem, not theirs). The eggs were straight up gross and inedible.
