Very good runways and ramp.  Nice manned terminal with pilots lounge, bathrooms, and snacks.  Aircraft services available.  Shuttle to town and hotels.  Competive fuel prices.  Nice view of the Sierra Nevada Range to the west.  The airport is bound by mountains on its east and west sides, so you'll need to climb a bit before heading east or west.
