This is a great place to stay if for an overnight or short stay. Very close to the airport. The room was small but comfortable and very clean. The AC did not really cool down the room but fortunately I had a portable fan that helped. The room itself wasn't hot, but didn't cool down to our preference.

It is kind of in the middle of nowhere, in terms of lacking shops and restaurants. You can take the 813 and 814 busses, and they can give you a pass for those. Also, I like the style of the furniture and lighting, but the small room can get stuffy

The Yotel is super clean and stylish and has a nice restaurant to relax in. The service is stellar throughout but once you know how to do the checkin, you’re good to go with the lobby screen. The rooms are tiny but have pretty much everything you need in them for an overnight airport stay. It was perfect for us. Thanks!

I was calling this property to ask how can i get shuttle from the airport. The answer from the receptionist was that i have to call them and shuttle will be sent. I've been told that shuttle is 24/7. When i arrived to the airport and callled them i found that the last shuttle from the airport is leaving at 23.45. I arrived literraly 5min later. When i was trying to talk about this with the manager, she answered that I've never been promised 24/7 serviss. Really "nice" customer service
