United States of Americalocation is ideal for airport travel. 24 hour shuttle is super helpful for 3am rides to the airport. Decent selection for breakfast. Quiet (especially for how close to the airport it is) and comfortable rooms. Mattress and pillows firm and new.

Costa RicaShuttle met us right after we picked up our luggage, at 1 AM ! What a pleasant surprise. Breakfast was available starting at 6 am, Also, the hotel was within walking distance of the car rental office. Couldn't have asked for more.

United States of AmericaGreat shuttle for service to the airport, allowed us not to worry about how we would catch our extremely early morning flight. They also provided 'surprise' sack lunch 'breakfasts' to take to the airport.
Colleen
United States of America
United States of AmericaAn excellent staff that quickly took care of us and our needs. We were leaving for the United States and he made sure everything was in order. Friendly, efficient and accommodating. It gave me an appreciation for Holliday Inn Express for the future. Also, a bonus, three restaurants just outside the door to walk too. The Polo place was perfect, next to the casino by the way.
