Has anyone staid there and if so, how easy is it to get to while travelling with two cases each and hand luggage via the skytrain?

From the reviews below it suggests that there is more than the Skytrain involved if arriving into the international terminal. In particular look for the review from mynameisalwaystaken on 22-Feb-2014.

Many thanks for that. It seems an odd way for them to have worked it as the new car hire centre is on the Sky Train one stop along so all international passengers picking up cars have to go through the same thing.

I am willing to be corrected but I am pretty sure that all the airport hotel in ATL require a shuttle bus. This is quite easy as all the shuttles go from the same area which is only for the buses (not like LAX where you have to do battle with every bus in existence. The buses park and wait usually in designated parkings bays.
Most hotels it is just a 5 minute ride away.

Thanks for the replies.
I've given up the idea of flying to Atlanta now and have just bought tickets to Orlando. The final destination is South Carolina and the drive is similar.
