Close to airport, not to comfortable for rest
Staff were friendly, breakfast was great. Unfortunately the windows don't open and they had a central heating temperature set, meaning you can't adjust your rooms temperature. It was really hot, stuffy, and difficult to sleep without clean air.

Convenient but not relaxing. Well priced.
The reception staff on check in was top lady. Very professional, friendly and helpful. The room was designed nicely, however, the walls are so thin that I could hear my neighbours as if we were sharing a room. When you book a 4 star hotel you do not expect to find yourself in a dormitory.

The thing that makes this hotel so special is it's reception staff. The quality, commitment and friendliness of the reception team is what has drawn me back to this hotel over many years. They are always professional, understanding and possess excellent English language skills.

The rooms are outdated and noisy. We could hear guests in adjacent rooms walking in and out all night long. There is no climate control in the room ( either was not working or was disconnected) thus the room was quite cold. The bathroom was also outdated and somewhat dirty- there was hair on the floor and the sink. The service at the restaurant on site was good however the food was mediocre. The property is advertising free parking but it is very difficult , if at all , to find a parking spot since the parking is super small and not for hotel guests only.

The hotel was nice. The regular breakfast starting at 7 am is amazing.The early breakfast is very limited. The hotel advertised free airport shuttle, but in reality they offer a shuttle/taxi from the airport only. If you are leaving and need to go from the hotel to the airport they don't offer transportation. The free airport shuttle is offered in one direction only. Overall a good experience.
