The staff is welcoming and friendly. The place is clean, the buffet is nice 😋 the breakfast is delicious and varied. There was just some construction work at the gym, they had to update this detail. This was the only negative point for people who trained every day.

Probably not to be repeated

They did not reply to my email asking for shuttle from airport and did not answer the phone. I had to get there by taxi. The tv did not work. There was plaster from damp walls on the floor of my room.

I stayed here with my mom and sister visiting from the states! We felt so safe and comfortable here. The security keeps a good eye on the place so you feel very secure and the whole staff is amazing! After a long day of travel the kitchen staff made us food at 1:00am despite them being closed and we really appreciated them for going out of their way as they did not have to. 10/10 recommend staying here if you visit very close to the airport weather you just got off the plane and need a place to stay or have an early flight to catch in the morning! This place was so lovely, clean and well taken care of! Thank you to all the staff!
