Fijn hotel dichtbij het vliegveld.
Pros:

Een fijn hotel. Niet alleen vanwege de ligging, maar ook door het vriendelijke personeel. Het hotel biedt ontbijtmogelijkheden vanaf 04.00am. Ideaal bij een vroege vlucht.

Cons:

Het hotel wordt kennelijk veel gebruikt en dat is er niet alleen aan de buitenkant van af te zien.

Pros:

The closeness to the airport

Cons:

With how close you are to the airport you expect to hear the planes, but the rooms had no soundproofing at all. You could hear everything in the hall and since people are there for flights they are coming and going all night.

Pros:

Ein typisches Hotel am Flughafen, OK für eine Nacht. Die Zimmer waren gut, das Frühstück auch. Der Flughafen war zu Fuß zu weit entfernt, es wurde aber ein Shuttlebus angeboten, was gut geklappt hat.

Pros:

Alojamiento muy cómodo si vas a quedarte cerca del aeropuerto. Hay una guagua que hace una ruta por varios puntos hasta llegar al hotel, sale cada pocos minutos y las 24 horas.
El personal es estupendo.

Worst customer service ever experienced
Pros:

Staff had over booked the hotel and sold our room so made up an excuse saying the and I quote “the hotel law” doesn’t allow a mum and daughter to share bed.

Cons:

The staff members laughed at us when we said we were stranded and had. I were to go with a 2 year old and said we should sleep on the street.
