Crowne Plaza [former Sheraton]- clean, nice beds, rooms are small, food in restaurant OK, corridors a little iffy 7/10
Ramada- dirty, long lines, default used by airlines in IROPs. 4/10.
All of the airport hotels are in a boring neighborhood I wouldn't walk around at night.

PS: The absolute worst has to be JFK Inn, i've heard far too many horror stories from it, never stay there.
Arriving at midnight. Overnighting due to missed connecting. Which has the niced bes, sheets, pillows, & towels:
Marriot Courtyard ($229 Travelocity Rate)
Crown Plaza ($229 ICH Wbsite Rate)
DoubleTree ($153 Travelocity Rate)
Hiltpn Garden inn ($158 Travelocity Rate)
Ignore the rates...just providing them as a benchmark. I am think the two best choices are the Hilton Garden inn or the Marriot. I think if the airline pays, I don't get any status beneifits or mileage (otherwise I'd probably prefer Hilton, as a Gold).
