I just used the Crown Plaza. It was a little bit expensive but not awful using the company adhoc crew member discount code.
most of the time I would use the monorail across the street to get to and from the terminal. Never called the hotel shuttle to get TO the hotel. Monorail was quicker. And since it's right next to the light rail AND a bus stop it was super easy and cheap to get to Target or go into town for restaurants and entertainment.
I also walked to and from Target a lot during the cooler months. Easy safe walk. Sidewalks the whole way.
