Security was a bit uncertain. The door lock could have easily been opened by some skilled thief.

Disliked: Staff & service, amenities
Very basic accommodations. The window air condition unit was very noisy. Very small room but clean. Instructions were sent for a late check-in which was very useful as my plane got delayed. It would be nice if the room had a minifridge...

Liked: Staff & service
Room was small, nothing fancy. It was very clean with a king size bed and a decent bathroom. It is very close to the airport which made it easy to get to for an early morning flight. It was comfortable enough and a good fit for us for the one night.
