Pros:

I liked the proximity to the airport, clean and spacious family room and comfy beds.

Cons:

Breakfast included the bare minimum. Would not pay for it separately, only if included in the price of the room.

Great location close to the airport, with very friendly and helpful staff.
Pros:

Early flight, no breakfast

Cons:

It would be lovely if the hotel had an opportunity to refresh the interior and facilities in the future — it would make this pleasant place even more enjoyable.

CUMPLE...SIN MÁS
Pros:

Si buscas una opción solo para dormir y estar cerca del aeropuerto, cumple con lo necesario. Evita las habitaciones de la planta baja...son oscuras, tristes y nada agradables

Cons:

La habitacion de la planta baja

Pros:

Close to the airport

Cons:

Everything else. The room we had had a leaking bath faucet that made it impossible to sleep m we changed rooms, and the second one had a clogged toilet...
And the most painful (pun intended) thing was the mattress. It was and old spring mattress, that has sunk in the middle, and you could feel each spring... It was painfull, and so were the pillows, made of hard foam...sleeping here is not fun...
I paid a hefty sum for breakfast which turned out to be very poor and disappointing....
