8.0 out of 10, Very good, 716 reviews
"I stayed at this property to catch an early flight. I found the shower had soap, but things weren't clearly labeled so i wasn't sure if it was hand soap. This place needs to get dispensers of something, because considering that most people staying here are flying outa, this seems like a huge oversight. Other than that i slept very well for the few hours i was there. "
