Great value for money hotel. Good breakfast with quite a few options, and comfy bed. Hotel seems a little bit dated and cleaning could be improved. However, would stay again if catching early flight or arriving late as it’s only 5 mins from the airport.

Great for an overnight stay, especially if you have a late arriving plane or an early morning departure as it’s so close to the airport Nice pool, amthough we didn’t have time to use it. Room was huge and very clean, pity the A/C didn’t work properly, but overall would use again.

The property is 5 min away from the airport. The staff was friendly and professional. They made arrangements for transport to the airport and also arranged for us to have breakfast before leaving a little earlier than usual, they also offered a packed breakfast to go if we wanted which I thought was great. Thank you to the staff.
