We have stayed here several times over the past few years and have always been very happy with the hotel. Just be aware that the shower access in the shoebox rooms would not work for a larger person. The rooms are clean and comfortable and the location is excellent. The in house cafe/bar is great for a drink or a meal.

Did not get a friendly vibe from the staff, especially at check-in. Hallways look decades old with ripped carpet. Huge indoor construction area right outside rooms. Courtyard rooms are too small.

The SKYBUS to and from the airport takes just 35 minutes and the hotel is easy walking distance. There is also lot of eateries around making for handy meals when you are busy like me. The decor is a lit...
