It was okay for a quick night to stay, but a little sketchy and probably wouldn’t want to stay any longer. Despite what it says, there is definitely no breakfast lol.

Ideal place to spend the night, before an early flight or arriving on a late flight. The place is relatively inexpensive and it was clean. I would stay there again. However, it is a shared bathroom, so some travelers may not like that.

Personnel agréable, mais chambre spartiate, peu isolée et très bruillante avec les départs et arrivées de l'aéroport. Difficile à dormir. Juste pratique de part sa proximité de l'aéroport. Mais relativement cher au vu des prestations.

空港からUberですぐ。歩けそうな距離だけど、交通量が多くて危険なので車推奨。近すぎて飛行機の音がうるさいので気になる人は耳栓を持参する方が良さそう。キッチンも完備。スタッフはとてもフレンドリーで親切。可愛くてフレンドリーな看板犬にも癒されました。
