This hotel was conveniently situated for a short hop to the airport. The check in was quick. The room was adequately equipped and comfortable. A good mattress and a nice shower. The buffets were vast and reasonably priced.

This property was a pleasant surprise. I was better quality than I expected. Actually it was nice. The only downfall I saw was they don’t pre-authorise your creditcard to allow for accidentals such as room service, washing clothes. So the room service you have to pay separately and the washing of clothing you have to go to the front desk to pay first before they will deliver the washed clothes, very inefficient.

Convenient. Comfortable. A/C controls were broken so room temp was difficult to manage. But, being autumn season, it was not too difficult to manage. I did not call it in.
