Reviews and Ratings
The hotel had a good size room that was perfectly appointed and acceptable for my needs, but it was dirty, freezing cold, and dated. The service was excellent in sorting out heating issues and offering a free breakfast to compensate. The location was convenient for my trip, and the dining experience was not as organized as desired with noisy surroundings. However, the staff were very friendly. The facilities were adequate, although the hotel seemed underutilized in some areas.
My stay at the hotel had its ups and downs. The rooms were small and not as big as expected; they could use a thorough cleaning, especially the remote and condiments. However, the service was friendly and accommodating. The location had some drawbacks, like dirty tables covered with cigarette ash, but it was convenient for a short drive. The dining options were hit and miss, with a mix of good and bad experiences.
The hotel offers clean and tidy rooms, perfect for a good night's sleep; however, the early morning noise was a letdown. The service was helpful but lacked friendliness at times, and the location, although near the airport, needs improvement. The dining experience had its ups and downs, with limited options but quick replacements. Overall, a decent stay but with some room for enhancement.
