Disappointing experience. The room that we were given was a bit run down. The staff was a mess. Being given several different stories depending on who you talked to was common. This occurred SEVERAL times. We were even lied to at check in about having to buy internet even though it was complimentary. Very unaccommodating when it came to a late check out after initially telling us it was not a problem. We had another night booked here a week after these two but we were so disgusted by the overall experience that we canceled the reservation while still in the hotel and re-booked with another hotel where we had a much nicer experience. Would never use again!
This is a perfectly adequate hotel for the purpose of staying overnight at the airport. Why pay twice as much for the other luxury hotel? Sure it is way overpriced given what you get, but the room was clean, it is safe, and the airport is only five minutes shuttle ride away
