Cercano, cómodo y buena ubicación
Pros:

La proximidad con el aeropuerto ya que llegas de muchas horas de avión y se agradece. La cama king side también es espectacular.

Cons:

Estuvimos una noche y la verdad que no podría decir nada malo, solo que vimos alguna hormiga en el baño pero tampoco para alarmarse

It's a motel. I wasn't expecting too much for my one night stay after a long flight.
Pros:

Easy check in and check out. Close to a few things by walk.

Cons:

Not the cleanest motel room I've stayed in. The price was quite expensive for what it was. The bed was very comfortable though.
