Airport Inn

8/10 Good
"Honestly a great choice for affordable stay. The place is dated and the housekeeping wasn't top notch but for the price its honestly worth it. Rooms were clean enough and bed was comfy. Staff at front desk were excellent, has a liquor store, some snacks for sale as well as a basic free breakfast. If you're here for work and not a vacation, this is definitely the best cost-effective option."
