I love that this place is so close to the airport and that it was easy to get to. It was easy to check in and out. However, their bed listed as "Queen" size is definitely not queen size. It's a full size. Two people barely fit, unless both people are small sized. That made for an uncomfortable sleep.

Previous reviews gave the continental breakfast high marks. We found this was not the case. The Breakfast was typical continental and a below par of a good breakfast.
