Very efficient check in and check out. Shuttle was great. Nice facilities but locating a nice place to eat without a car was difficult. Also found the prices in snack shop to be very high.

A nice place for an overnight if you’re flying out early. Friendly helpful staff. The best shuttle service I’ve experienced. It’s available 24 hrs a day with pickup every 20 minutes. There are a few restaurant options that are walkable.

Only has a desk chair - not that comfortable while in room waiting. Staff very friendly and some had excellent english. Shuttle from and to airport ...
