Boka detta om You need a quick, reliable layover spot with a free 24/7 shuttle to Syracuse Hancock International Airport.
Varför människor älskar det
- Free 24-hour airport shuttle with legendary drivers
- Less than 10 minutes from Destiny USA mall
- Free hot buffet breakfast to grab before early flights
Snabb Överblick: It's a standard, slightly dated airport hotel with thin walls, but the shuttle driver is a hero and the location is unbeatable for early flights.
Recenserat av @dannsing1: I always book this Holiday Inn Express when flying out of Syracuse. The rooms are consistently clean, the beds are super comfy, and having free coffee downstairs is a lifesaver for early flights. It's my favorite practical stay.
