All points well taken. Reviews didn't seem stellar but I didn't notice any major red flags---or, as I was upgrading from my previous plan to sleep on the airport floor, nothing would have seemed bad.

We'll see. I have plenty of time and only expect a bed for 8 hours. If the shuttle doesn't work out, I'll look for good samaritans to give me a ride or share a cab.
