The room was clean. The airport shuttle service proved very useful. I also appreciated the convenient store across the street. It was helpful for grabbing a few necessities.
The air conditioner was LOUD. It was difficult to sleep with it running. The breakfast finished quite early at 9 am. I missed it one morning. The road noise from the highway was noticeable in my room. though not unbearable.
