It took a while (2 room changes) to get to a room that had working AC, electricity and hot water. BUT... It is close to the airport, the price is low, easy to get a cab and most of staff were helpful. Food was decent.

Liked: Staff & service
5 minutes car distance from the airport so convenient for a very short stopover. Cheap food at the Motel we had a dinner which was ordered and served in the evening/night when we arrived. WC in the room is bad, there is no poliban and the floor gets all wet, plus the water pressure is really really weak. Do not expect to take a nice shower. Overall it is OK for a quick night stop, considering the cost.
