Good in a pinch
Pros:

We got hit by the derecho storm, no power. We stayed here and the rooms were a decent size, the hotels in a decent location, you don't hear planes all day and night which is a bonus!

Cons:

The no mention of a pet fee(I've traveled enough, I budget that in) the employees weren't the friendliest
