The Inn was exactly what it advertises itself to be. It was close to the airport with a shuttle. The rooms and exterior areas were clean. The entire staff was a pleasure to interact with. The grab and go breakfast had a wide variety of items to choose from and was regularly replenished. I visited multiple times for coffee!

James, at the desk, was delightful and welcoming. The bathroom is almost bigger than the room. I think the pillows are made of a solid piece of concrete.
