"Room was spacious. The bed really comfy. The breakfast was delicious
The only thing I could say that the room was far too warm which made it hard to sleep. Going forward air conditioning would be great 👍"

"It's a room for a night to facilitate airport travel, and nothing more. My room was dirty. The shower needs a new curtain that doesn't allow water to just seep through.
I booked a shuttle to the airport, and it never came, so I quickly booked the next one. This made me late getting to the airport, and I had to sprint to make my flight, which I just barely made."
