The property is closer to the airport, however, it is difficult to go even by taxi. The bed was ok, and room was good size (We stayed in deluxe king bed). Furniture is ok, but there is nothing else, not even a trashcan. Internet was not working. No elevators. Breakfast was meager. OK property for one-night desperate transit stay.

The hotel is 15 min walk from terminal 2 across a main road and over a bridge that goes over a rail line.see google maps. The room and bath are large with queen bed and sofa.good sized shower water was just off cold.ok in hot weather. I did not check food or other facilaties.It might be difficlt to get into town because of heavy trffic unless you could use train. It is quite good for cheap stay before flying

The property did not set up the shuttle to the airport to arrive on time so we ended up missing our international flight.

Location is near the airport. Staff is great but facilities need update. We had no electricity for half the time we were there. There is a lot of construction around the area.

By far the worst hotel I have ever stayed at. The toilet smelled like sewer , the shower was filled with mold and everything is broken and dirty. Luckily I only spent a couple hours while waiting on my flight. Toilet had no seat bed sheets are no longer white but discolored yellowish brown. Outside is also a complete dump. This hotel needs a lot of work .

No online data retrieval facility

When I approached the Reception, first they said there is no such kind of registration / booking on this date in my name. Then I contacted my company who booked originally and retrieved online booking infos then submitted after that they allocated a room for me, I was stood IN front of the reception around 30 minutes because of their (the hotel reception) unawareness of online booking data.

Close to the airport and clean. Good sized beds and bathrooms. Fairly quiet, still get roosters crowing in the morning and sometimes a train in the distance. There's a restaurant attached to the hotel that is convenient. This hotel is nothing fancy but location is prime.
