Location is great and the shuttle is appreciated. Lovely dinner. The schnitzel was delicious.

It was good for the location, dinner there was nice. Receptionist and the workers in the morning were very friendly.
Pros:

The restaurant was nice, and the location was great if you are traveling and need to catch your flight.
The reception was amazing. We were welcomed with a drink.

Cons:

Later in the evening the receptionists were not nice and they answered you rudely. The weather was cold and the aircondition was not working and it was poorly attended to.
We asked on how to use the tv and it was bad attitude towards us.
The room is too small, the bed is very small.

Pros:

Не очень далеко от аэропорта.

Cons:

Остановились, т.к. хотели получить привычный уровень сетевого отеля, но это и близко не похоже.
В ресторане было очень долгое обслуживание, что пришлось даже семье уйти в номер, так и не дождавшись десерт.
На обратном пути, учитывая опыт, выбрали другой отель.
