paid shuttlemechanical noise

The shuttle from the airport was convenient, but it costs extra. I thought that was a bit cheap. The noise was also noticeable (so much for a quiet night before a flight). I heard some sort of mechanical hum, and it went on intermittently, so I slept poorly. I guess I need to pack earplugs next time.

The shuttle service to the airport was reliable. The front desk staff provided quick assistance. My room was close to the elevator, a detail I found helpful. The hotel restaurant offered a variety of options for dinner.

The gym had limited equipment. I noticed only one treadmill was functional.

Decent stay, but some aspects need attention

shuttle servicesmall roomconfusing navigation

The hotel's location near the airport was a definite plus for my early morning flight. The included shuttle service proved convenient and saved me time.

The room, while functional, felt a bit small for the price I paid. The air conditioning didn't seem to work properly. I struggled to regulate the temperature overnight. The lack of clear signage within the hotel.

The room was beautiful and clean with a very comfortable bed. I enjoyed the lovely clean bathroom after a long day of travel. The breakfast was fantastic, and I had a great dinner in the restaurant at a reasonable price. Offered early check in, perfect because I arrived on a early flight.

The bar staff were QUITE rude. I was sat having a conversation with another couple, and they closed the bar early.

i found the staff super friendly and helpful. we could leave our luggage until the afternoon on the day we checked out, i was very grateful for that. it was very handy to take the bus to and from the airport, it runs every 30 mins.

i paid for a family room, i was shocked it did not have a bath. parking was charged at €15 per night. breakfast was also an additional charge.
