Not impressed considering the cost of the hotel. My room was not fully cleaned, we only stayed 1 night so I did not let anyone know. Stay was ok but I would look at other options. Breakfast was good. A very good selection of a variety of foods, we enjoyed that very much. Airport shuttle was also convenient.
