The Crowne Plaza isn't as close to the Airport as it looks. Google Maps shows it being right out side the airport, but its actually down the road quite a bit. There is no sidewalk, and its a kind of a tough walk with luggage. The taxis will all slow down and bother you for a ride. I wouldn't do that again. Although I would stay at the hotel again its brand new, and pretty nice.
