We loved our stay! The hotel was clean, the location felt safe and was close to the airport, our room was fantastic and the staff was so very helpful! They even gave us suggestions for how to remain safe at night and were helpful in calling us a taxi for the airport in the middle of the night. The food in the restaurant was delicious and had a wide selection of choices.

The staff was wonderful. They made sure we had what we needed and went above and beyond to help us secure transportation. The facility was clean. The apartment we stayed in was spacious but needed a few updates. The pool was too cold to enjoy. Overall I would recommend this hotel because the staff made it everything.
