The staff were welcoming and very warm

The hotel is nice for a short stay, but the shower could definitely use a renovation. The quality of the hotel doesn’t quite justify the cost

This was a very comfortable, clean hotel. The breakfast was not included with our room, but was very good with lots of hot food options. The dining room was attractive and food was terrific. A shuttle bus to the airport runs regularly. The only difficulty we had was finding the right place to get the shuttle bus from the airport, but that's an airport signage issue. Hightly recommend this hotel.
