Overall I’d definitely recommend staying at this spot.
Pros:

Great spot, especially for families. They have a variety of quick food options, plus the restaurant if needed. Free parking was easy & close plus a free shuttle bus to the airport any time of day.

Cons:

I stayed the Mercure side so it was a bit difficult carrying my bags up flights of stairs to my room. It was also a little bit noisy with other people in the hallways & slamming of doors some nights.
