the location near the airport was very convenient. the shuttle service to the airport was quick for a small fee. breakfast offered a wide selection of foods..
the bed had rollers, a problem i found to be dangerous. the staff offered another room, but it seemed to have the same issue. the shower drain was clogged, so water pooled on the bathroom floor.
