"Free parking and a heated swimming pool were big pluses but the best perk was the free shuttle to and from the airport."
"The hotel shuttle was available to take us to/from any location so we used this to connect with the Airport, Old Town and the Car Rental Center."
"Shuttle to and from Airport and the MCRD! They will also take you to and from Olde Town :)"
