Overall an excellent stay. Very close to the airport. Staff are very courteous, professional and helpful. The breakfast was spot on. The stay would have been a five if there had been more information provided on where to get the shuttle at the airport and second, that not only did the room come with a working airconditioner, but that it be on when we arrived at 2am. As it was we had to back to reception for a new room.
