underwhelming stay close to the airport

unresponsive heatinglimited towels
i found the room temperature uncomfortably warm. despite my attempts to adjust it, the central heating seemed unresponsive. also, the limited number of towels provided was inconvenient. only two towels were available (face and body), leaving me without one for my feet (a small thing, but annoying).

Convenient Stay Near the Airport

great breakfasthelpful staffquick walkvegan option
The breakfast offered great variety and quality. The staff made a vegan friendly salad for me. This was not on the standard menu. The receptionist was very helpful and kind. The hotel is a quick nine minute walk to the airport.
The bathroom light was not working. This was a minor inconvenience.

The room included comfortable beds! though there was no kettle or cup in the room. Only two towels were provided, one for the face and one for the body, made things a little difficult.

The breakfast buffet featured many plant based options and healthy foods. The staff was able to prepare a vegan salad. It was not a menu item. I look forward to another breakfast there soon.
