handy airport stay!
great staffclean roomcomfortable bedsconvenient location
I found the staff fantastic. my room was clean with very comfortable beds, such a win after traveling! the location is super convenient. The walk to the airport takes only a few minutes. i also thought prices at the bar were surprisingly reasonable for an airport hotel, which really helps.
the pillows were slightly uncomfortable. it was a very minor thing though!

small bathroomstrange smell
the bathroom was quite small and felt a bit cramped. the shower was combined with the bathtub and this setup was not very convenient. there was no way to open windows. the room had a strange smell. the price felt high considering the room's qualities.
