I understand that early check-in is not always guaranteed, but here they won’t do it at all unless you pay $50 + tax, even if you’re only 2–3 hours early. Usually, at most hotels I go to, if there are rooms available they’ll give me my room early.
The room itself was a bit dark — in both a good and bad way. It’s great if you want to sleep during the day, but if you need to get ready, eat, or do anything that requires good lighting, you won’t have it unless you go to the bathroom. There were only two small lights next to the beds and one by the desk; no ceiling lights.
I also didn’t see any water fountains, only vending machines. Most hotels offer free water stations, but not here.
Overall, I just needed a place to stay before my morning flight, and the microwave and mini fridge were definitely a plus. The pillows, however, were not good - very skinny and flat. There’s also no airport shuttle and no complimentary breakfast.
I’ll probably skip this hotel next time. The price was fair ($135), but if you arrive early, don’t expect your room to be ready before 3 p.m. unless you want to pay an extra $53.50 like we did.
