Good to spend a night before your flight

Good check in and check out process, overall nice well maintained property. Good breakfast options.

Gdyby nie hałas z meczetu , to byłby bardzo udany
Pros:

Hotel ładny , personel hotelu pomocny i bardzo miły , faja restauracja z dobrym jedzeniem na dachu budynku.

Cons:

Hotel jest dosłownie na wyciągnięcie ręki od meczetu i jeżeli komuś przeszkadza hałas modlitw , które odbywają się kilka razy ( dzień , noc ) , to nie polecam , bo nawet zatyczki do uszu nie pomagają.

Great staff. Tiny rooms and EXTREMELY LOUD CALL TO PRAYRR.
Pros:

Staff were lovely and welcoming. Airport pick up fantastic no issues.

Cons:

Extremely small rooms. But the worst thing was the EXTREMELY LOUD call to prayer wake up at 5.15am. Hotel provides ear plugs to guests due to this issue. VERY LOUD!!!
