Great staff! We arrived at 11 am for an overnight a stay over for an early flight the next morning.

I was not happy with the suite I stayed in because it was near the road. I could hear the vehicle traffic during the daytime and at night. I got awakened several times due to loud motorcycles, trucks and either ambulance or police sirens. I put up with it because I was only staying one night.
