Atlanta Airport

I stayed at the Springhill Suites at the airport. From baggage claim there is a free train/tram that goes to the rental car facility. First stop is the Georgia International Convention Center and the Springhill Suites. Sure beats taking a shuttle or cab!! One minute from baggage claim!! Seems to be quite new. A Marriott is being built accross the street. Nothing else close by at this time. Breakfast is included and OK. Typical - bad eggs, sausage, cereal, yogert, oatmeal, bagels.....
No restaurants close, so if you do not have a car, you have to go back to the airport to eat. Mini store at the hotel - water @ $2.50.
Once there are restaurants close by, this will be an ideal place to stay if you want to be close to the airport.
Be a good idea if other airports would have a similar set up. Eliminate shuttle busses and cabs to/from hotels, restaurants, renal car facilities, etc.
Good move Atlanta!!
