Disappointing, bad odour in hotel
Pros:

The location

Cons:

The room & elevator, had a very bad odour. The roof top pool was small.
It was rated a 5 star hotel and was like a 3 star hotel, very disappointing. They only provided 1 small bottles of water each and you cannot drink the tap water. The bedding was not comfortable.

Hotel très bien, confortable, bien situé
Pros:

Hotel bien situé par rapport à l'aéroport. Propre, personnel accueillant, calme, beau hall d'entrée, chambre confortable et spacieuse pour 4, propre. Piscine sur le toit sympa dans l'idée même si nous l'avons trouvée petite. Très bon petit déjeuner.

Cons:

Piscine à l'intérieur vieillissante et froide, plus petite qu'il n'y paraît sur les photo. Salle du petit déjeuner bruyante à l'heure de pointe.
Le rooftop pourrait être mieux aménagé pour en faire un vrai plus.
