Convenient and Clean Stay

The hotel provides a convenient shuttle to the airport, made my early flight less stressful. My room had a queen bed and a twin bed and it was impressively clean. I also dined at the rooftop restaurant and the food was great there.

The shower head in my room was a little difficult to control. I found it hard to adjust the pressure to my liking. This was a minor inconvenience .
