10/10 Excellent
"Overall great location and services (smooth check-in, dedicated rooms for bag storage), good kettle and offerings, spacious room, comfortable king bed, clean surroundings. The bathroom was newly renovated, but the shower was tricky (the glass divider is a bit too short to shield water from spilling over), and the key panel was old-fashioned and seemed old. The service and location was so excellent that I couldn't dock a star. Note that there are a few steps at the main entrance!"

"Really the o my reason I am not giving it five star was the moldy grout n the shower. Everything else was pretty good. Kind of a fun and funky vibe to it. Staff were very helpful when I asked to check in hours early. Bed and pillows very comfortable. They control the heat and the room was quite warm. They recommended turning off the heat entirely and opening a window which I did and was quite comfortable. Well litโ€ฆ. And surprisingly quiet for an airport location. If you donโ€™t mind a little mold I can highly recommend."

"We absolutely loved our stay at this hotel! Everything was exceptionally clean, comfortable, and well-maintained. The staff was wonderfulโ€”always friendly, welcoming, and eager to help with anything we needed. The location was fantastic, with so many attractions, shops, and restaurants nearby, making it easy to explore and enjoy our trip. The hotel was worth every penny and truly made our visit even more memorable. Our only regret is that we didnโ€™t have enough time to experience everything the area has to offer! We enjoyed ourselves so much that weโ€™re already planning a return trip in the next few years. We highly recommend this hotel and would gladly stay here again!"
