Room was a bit small and cramped with no in-room fridge, but was otherwise a very nice place to stay with exceptionally friendly and helpful staff, excellent restaurant, very well priced, and within walking distance of the airport (what I was looking for). Will surely stay there again.

Disliked: Amenities
This is a hotel adjacent to the airport; thus, suitable for people either staying over either upon arrival or departure. I found it quite ridiculous that the hotel does not provide an airport shuttle service of its own! Instead, we had to engage the services of an independent uber type of taxi to shuttle us the short drive to the airport and at an inflated price!
