Coast Gateway Hotel
Staff was great and very friendly. Room was a smaller queen but it was just me. Everything worked and it was very clean. And being right next to the airport, it's very oddly quiet. Across the parking lot is a very nice restaurant and Expedia gave me a $10 credit for restaurant. (I use Expedia a bit...) ...
