Had a lovely overnight stay here. The facility was clean and felt safe. The staff were extremely helpful and they also have a standard continental breakfast if required. Walkable distance from the airport and great for a late arrival flight. Jasmine was a very kind and helpful staff member, Thankyou for your accommodations.

Not the worst budget hotel I have stayed in but also not the best. It was certainly good enough for a weary traveller to put their head down and sleep after or before catching a flight. Handy proximity to airport terminals great and an easy 5-minute walk to and from. Pros – the receptionist was efficient and polite, my room was clean, and the bed quite comfortable with crisp bedding. Cons – the space was cramped – partly because the mattress was about 25cm longer than the base – meaning I had to crab walk past it to get to the other side of the room. The property is showing its age and could do with a bit of a freshen up. and the road surrounds leading to the property could be beautified somewhat – it's a bit bleak otherwise.

Advertised as a 10 min walk. We are old and got lost. The walk was half an hour and we nearly ended up on the highway in the middle of the night. Taxis not wanting to take you there. Not going there again

It's a basic hotel a very short walk to the airport. The rooms are clean and the staff was friendly. The area around the hotel is a bit run down but it's a 5 min walk from T1 (follow the signs). The best thing about it is it's much cheaper than other choices near the airport.
