We stayed here for 8 days as a party of 4 and we have absolutely no complaints. The rooms were clean and comfortable. They were cleaned daily and fresh towels were given every day. The beds were comfortable and the area was very easy to navigate with a car. The breakfast was pretty much the same everyday but it was a welcome start to the day. The lady who replenished the breakfast items was extremely helpful and friendly. She was great with my two kids everytime they asked her for something. They had omelets, sausages, biscuits and gravy, yogurt, cereal, bagels, toast, oatmeal and fruit. Pretty much what we needed to start our day. Definitely will recommend for anyone looking for a reasonably priced hotel with these amenities. We were able to get some shopping done in nearby shopping areas which was nice and convenient. My only disappointment was that the dryer wasn’t working, so we used a laundromat for our laundry. But it was actually cheaper at the laundromat so it didn’t matter in the end.

MISSLEADING INFORMATION ON SHUTTLE. Booked this hotel for an overnight layover based on 24 hour shuttle listed on their website. Discovered on check in that the shuttle only runs for a few hours in the morning, and a few more in the afternoon. Ended up having to arrange private transportation that cost half as much as the room itself. Tried following up with hotel and IHG for customer service, and after 2 weeks of phone calls went nowhere, I gave up. I won't be staying here or at other IHG properties going forward based on my experience.

Very dated rooms and facilities. Cleanliness is average but at least my bed was comfortable. Staff was very friendly and helpful, the shuttle was fine too. Recommendations for the shuttle, when you arrive to the airport call immediately to the hotel to arrange your transport and go to terminal C which is the pick up spot. For the transport from hotel to airport just let know the receptionist in advance the time you need it and you should be fine.
I don't recommend this hotel, has a lot of room for improvement related to the facilities that are dated.
