Pros:

Breakfast was great. Room was clean & comfortable. The main thing that drew us to Alex was the shuttle to & from the airport. Staff was great to accommodate us at our time for the shuttle.

Check out as soon as possible.
Pros:

Located near airport with free shuttle to airport

Cons:

Breakfast is not good. I found at least four flies in the room. By paying more than US$300+, the quality of accommodation is totally unacceptable. I feel regret to choose this hotel.

Lower price would have been more appropriate
Pros:

it was close to airport and shuttle was immediately available

Cons:

the price was not commensurate with the value. I would have been satisified with this accommodation if I had been paying much less.
Breakfast was "stingy".

算是物有所值的酒店
Pros:

入住两晚感觉不错，距机场仅近遍，到对面的湖泊也近。客房面积大，床品舒适，设施设备完好，卫生不错，酒店应该是最近装修。看订房平台对这个酒店的评分不足7分，下订单时有些忐忑，入住后感觉这个酒店应该至少8分以上，不知什么原因所致。还是眼见为实，有需要可以选择。

Cons:

早餐应该增加品种选项。
