Lantern Inn & Suites

10/10 Excellent

"Pleasantly surprising. We would stay here again! This motel had the best shower pressure of any hotel, motel, B&B, expensive hotel we have ever stayed at! It was spotless, modernized, and surprisingly quiet considering it’s an a main highway and on the flight path of an airport. Centrally located to restaurants and shopping. Great value for the money."

Kompose Boutique Hotel

8/10 Good

"I have stayed at this location several times already and I keep returning due to its location and convenience. I did have a minor issue with my room this week, the mirror over the light kept flickering, I told the front staff and they fixed it. When I returned back to my room later, it began to flicker once again. Not a huge deal because it seems like this could be normal wear and tear over time but I appreciate the staff’s promptness is addressing it. There was a water outage this trip due to a main line being cut by construction being done at the airport and the staff seemed to be very patient with customers who seemed to be frustrated about it. There wasn’t anything the hotel could do but provide bottled water in the interim but the issues was resolved some time during the night. I am returning next week and I hope check in will be smooth as I’ve had some odor issues the last 2 late check ins. Other than that, this is a great place to stay if you’re looking for convenience and friendly staff."
