We stayed here just for layover with 6 heavy bags in luggage so shuttle just dropped us off by the main entrance. It was very hard for us to carry those bags from all the Stairs to the room without any help, Also the staff wasn’t very welcoming. While leaving the hotel, shuttle came 15 mins late so we had to stand in cold with small kid and all luggages & early morning

The people staying above us were extremely loud. It sounded like they were stomping around all night. Mentioned something to the staff and that didn't do anything. The place is nice but we just had a bad stay and my kids couldn't sleep.

Hotel is fine. Shuttle only hourly which meant waiting almost an hour at the airport. In the morning shuttle to the airport, the shuttle was packed - not enough baggage space.
