Country Inn & Suites by Radisson, Omaha Airport, IA

8/10 Good

"Heated pool was very cold but my kids didn’t care. Room was dated and there were a couple small dead bugs in the shower. Nothing major but didn’t feel super clean. Shuttle was okay, though directions where pickup was at the airport was confusing. Left before breakfast but they did give us a couple things to snack on for our early morning flight. I’d stay here again for the price and convenience. Staff was very friendly and helpful."
