I had to pay extra for a taxi. the room was too basic, and the bed was not comfortable. I could feel the springs in the mattress, what made sleep difficult. I find it disappointing for a hotel near an airport.

adequate overnight stay

helpful staffclean roomlovely foodabsent receptionphone useairport transfer
the room was clean the staff was very helpful and friendly i especially appreciated the driver who took us to the airport he was patient as we were running late the cleaner caught us before we left that was very thoughtful. the food was lovely i have already recommended the hotel to others. thank you for making our stay pleasant.
i arrived and there was no one on the reception desk it was advertised as a 24 front desk i waited for over 25 minutes by myself with no assistance. i could hear that someone was in the toilets in the reception area on their phone i think they were watching videos. there was also no one available to assist me in the morning when i checked out and had queries about the airport transfers.
