Reviews and Ratings
The hotel is conveniently located near good eating establishments and the airport, making it a practical choice for travelers. The rooms are kept clean with a small kitchenette, providing added convenience during the stay. However, the dining options were limited, and the freezer in the room could be better maintained.
I had a great time at this hotel with clean and comfy rooms, friendly staff, and a good location close to the airport. The dining experience could be improved, but overall, it was a pleasant stay.
I really enjoyed my stay at this hotel. The location is superb, close to the airport and with easy access to downtown. The rooms were kept clean and had a small kitchen, which was convenient. The service was excellent with helpful staff offering housekeeping and shuttle services. The dining, although included, had delicious salmon. However, some facilities could be improved for a better overall experience.
