Hotel is clean, staff was great and breakfast was very good.
Didn't like: room was not cleaned well - hair, stains on the floor and empty water bottles left from previous guest. Safe was locked when we checked in security asked for a couple of hours to come open it

Had to book a stay here very last minute and cannot reccomend it enough! Very kind staff and great accommodations! The airport shuttle was perfect and the highlight was the kind man running the shuttle who made great conversation and made everyone feel safe and sound.
This property was amazingly priced for as nice as it was. Clean rooms, spacious rooms, amazing views watching the planes land and take off. Nice lamps over bed for reading and amazing huge mirrors.

Transportation to airport was very good. Bed was comfortable, food at restaurant was not very good. Food was cold and priced way too expensive. Service was excellent.
