IIRC, there's a Hilton group property near the airport which may serve your purposes.

Thanks, I'll look into that.


FWIW, the others have mentioned asking about a 'day rate' ... one thing that virtually any hotel will do, even if they don't have a formal day rate, is to let you book a room for the night prior to your arrival - - yes, full cost.

What you put on the reservation is that you're going to have an extremely late arrival ... i.e., the next morning.

This can get expensive, but it is one way to guarantee a room before normal check-in times.

Unfortunately, though, most places have a fairly early check-out time,
which means paying for TWO nights, but only staying for a few hours.
She was trying to avoid that.
