Good hotel - unreliable shuttle service

Hotel is 5 minutes from the airport, had a comfy bed and courteous staff. We needed the shuttle 4 times, but were only able to use it twice because we didn't receive a message back for the first trip to the hotel, and it didn't show up when we went into town and needed it for the way home (we waited long enough that 2 shuttles should have arrived, but neither did). So if the shuttle is a big deal, the other airport hotel may be more reliable?
