“This airport-adjacent hotel appeals to business and family travelers alike with renovated rooms and uncommon amenities like indoor mini-golf. I appreciate the diligence of the staff and proximity to dining, but factor in extra fees for parking and destination services. It's a practical choice if location trumps character.”
