Didn't need an airport shuttle. The kitchen was well prepared and the suite was excellent except for the a/c/heat was so noisy I couldn't sleep. Fix the heater and I'll give you 6 stars.

The hotel itself was clean and the room was spacious. But if your plans are to use this as a park and fly, find another hotel. Even though they advertise a 24 hour airport shuttle, you are not allowed to keep a vehicle on site during your trip or it woll be towed, which makes it a useless amenity. They didn't disclose this fact until after check in when we were arranging airport transport. So we had 2 vehicles we had to find places to park.

They tried to charge me more for my reservation than I booked it for. I did get them to change it as I had the email showing the correct price but it was a long check in process. The hotel was okay but it needs a facelift.
