SERVICE & CHECKIN -- An inviting small-business family-owned vibe.
Their cordial & earnest staff provided a swift checkin experience. Early checkin was also free & Parking available onsite.
Tap payment didn't work.
Housekeeping staff are quick but noisy & unconventional.
LOBBY, ELEVATOR, CORRIDORS -- An underdog.
The reception area isn't much of a lobby. It's technically the garage level & more functional than social or decorative.
But the common area on the first guest floor was very pleasant & had a quaint community feel.
ROOM (walkthrough) -- Spacious, clean, & modern suite with a lot of function:
Vibrant lighting, operational windows (cloudy & need a wash), sufficient storage & plenty of tabletop space.
Dated color scheme & fixtures, yet it wasn't uncomfortable.
Phones are overdue for a refresh; The number list is so old it's begun to brown & the Jack was broken so it slipped out constantly.
BED (king) -- Excellent.
Quality linens, supportive mattress, & so many pillows!
Besides reading lights were great for low-light work late at night.
BATH -- Pleasantly surprised.
Small dimensions, dated low toilet, & tired design BUT they didn't compromise on the bathing experience--A premium combination tub with jets!
Other highlights:
High cleaning standards
Well-maintained tile
Textured towels
Large vanity
Manual exhaust & robust ventilation
Roio toiletries
TV & ENTERTAINMENT -- ~30" Samsung TV... duct taped to dresser🤔; Unsightly but fully functional.
Basic programming content offered.
Ports were easily accessible & the model was mostly compatible with Google TV.
WI-FI & CELL RECEPTION -- Good cell proximity; shouldn't have any problems with tethering or call quality.
Heavily imbalanced WiFi bandwidth which you'll feel if trying to multi task.
Otherwise it was fine.

FOOD & DRINK -- NOT DoorDash friendly.
Rooms are equipped with wet bar sink, large mini fridge, full-size microwave, & Hamilton beach coffee maker. No dishware is provided, which was unexpected.
There's a light Breakfast offered at the usual time + free beverages in the lobby.
NOISE & LOCATION -- Noisy housekeeping was a bit of a headache.
The neighboring residential area is also rowdy & there isn't much in the form of sound proofing.
For the most part it was fine & seemed safe.
RATING
A Strong airport hotel with personable employees & a competitive price point.
I'd stay here again & recommend it if this spot is on your radar.
4/5 ⭐️
