My parents stayed here for a night due to a long overlay and this hotel is amazing. They arrived late at night and the shuttle was already waiting for them at the airport which I appreciate so much! Then they had to leave very early the next day and the shuttle was ready for them to head back to the airport. They staff was amazing and the hotel was beautiful.

The room was very comfortable for me, with a desk to get some work done at, and a lovely, cozy bed. I had a great sleep, the room was clean, and the staff were all friendly. It's an excellent location - the shuttle to and from the airport was prompt and easy, the City Mall offers some additional food and shopping options, and overall this was a comfortable and safe hotel.
