Reasonably priced for one night
Good value for money. We needed a budget stopover having flown in late night. Close to airport, clean, reasonably quiet and an fairly comfy bed for two sleepy travellers.
I stayed only one day in the hotel because I had to take a flight very early. The room was clean and the air conditioning worked well. The bathroom was small, but that is ok for a short stay. There are many supermarkets, restaurants, and shops in the neighborhood. It is possible to reach the airport by walking nearly 20min (I did it with luggage). I think this hotel was a good choice for the price.
Other guests should only be aware of the noise of the flights arriving and leaving at late and early hours because this may disturb some persons (but that was not a problem for me).
Very accommodating hosts, small room but good facilities incl air con, balcony, Wi-Fi, breakfast. Walking distance from the airport and on the bus route into the centre. Stayed here previously and will stay here again. Highly recommended.
