the breakfast had many options available, and it tasted delicious.

The room was not so good. the furniture seemed quite dated and the decor looked old. the mattress seemed like two single beds pushed together. It wasn't a comfortable double.

The complimentary welcome drink was a great touch. I loved it! The room included tea, coffee, and fresh milk, so that was amazing. I had a double room, and it was very clean and spacious. The windows opened, and .

The stairs smelled like the kitchen. That was a bit much! I wish there had been more information about the local area in the room. I was nervous!

Decent stay near the airport

airport proximityclean roomunbearable temperature

The hotel is very close to the airport. This was convenient. Communication from the hotel was excellent. The room was quite clean and organised, which I appreciated.

The room temperature was unbearable. It was very much used as an excuse.
