Decent place to stay for one night close to the airport. The restaurant was surprisingly good and staff were nice and friendly. Beds and pillows not that great and AC was on the fritz.

Everything fine.

Everything was great although the bar was closed by the time I arrived at 11.20. A bit of a shame that, as I would have liked a drink. Also, I have a CPAP machine and it was a bit of a faff to plug in as the plug was under the TV opposite the bed, rather than by the bedside. Overall, though, most impressed, staff were friendly and well-presented and the room was clean and well-maintained. The inclusive breakfast and the double-door that closed either toilet or shower was a nice touch.
