When I made the reservation part of why I picked this hotel was it had shuttle service to the airport. When we checked in they said they stopped doing this service 2-3 weeks ago and we would have to get a taxi! Very disappointed!!

No shuttle

The hotel was clean staff was friendly. The reason we booked the hotel was for our shuttle to the airport and when we checked in the front desk told us the shuttle services ended that day and no longer offered the service. So we had to pay for a taxi both ways.
