Staff was wonderful and very friendly Room was basic same as any Best Western nothing fancy Bathroom door was hard to open and close as bottom of it was warped most likely from crappy shower curtain that didnt work very well Free breakfast was good had all the normal breakfast buffet type items The one thing I wasnt pleased with was the light switch on the wall had a light to make it easier to find in the dark but it was so bright that it affected us when we were trying to sleep. Other then that room was good and basic for a one night stay close to the train station Pros room had a microwave and fridge Lots of shopping and restaurants close by

This property has been recently updated and looks very clean and modern. The staff at the front desk was friendly and he helped us with all our needs. The pool is a very small and right in the parking lot providing absolutely no privacy. Overall good and clean place to stay. The free airport shuttle is a definitely a plus

The first room we were given smelled very strongly of cigarettes. The second room we were given, part of the bathroom ceiling plaster had fallen into the tub and on the floor. At that point we didn't care, we slept there. There was a weird smell coming from the AC fan. Otherwise the staff were really nice and the beds were comfortable, so we slept well.

They offer parking and a shuttle to and from the airport. They start at 5AM which is great but stop running after 4:30PM. Many flights get in after that so the shuttle is useless. Disappointing. But it is a good location if you need a close stay to the airport.
