8/10 Good
"Perfect location if flying out the next day. Air conditioning is wonderful especially since there was a heat wave. Staff very friendly, beds comfy enough and didn’t hear any planes even though it’s right at the airport. Showers small, but does the trick. Good breakfast choices for everyone."
