5.8
Multiple guests reported unclean elements (tub not clean, dirty carpet, stained fixtures) though a few reviews praised housekeeping; overall cleanliness is a notable concern.
Service
8.3
Shuttle and food/bar staff were frequently praised for friendliness and convenience, but front-desk service was sometimes unfriendly or had attitude; issues with points/refunds were reported.
Location
8.6
Consistently noted as convenient and close to the airport; location is a clear strength.
Room Quality
6.2
Rooms are described as large but dated — reports of old/stained items, carpet and bathtub issues, and missing/ unplugged fridges or microwaves reduce the score.

Shuttle service is highly rated and frequent, but notable amenity gaps include no in-room microwave in many rooms, slow internet and some parking/pass inconveniences.

Several guests highlighted good price and strong value for money relative to the hotel’s offerings.
Food and Beverage
8.1
Mixed feedback: some guests loved the restaurant and bar (beautiful view, fantastic food), while others reported slow service or that the on-site restaurant was not great; overall leans positive.
Overall Experience
7.4
Overall a mixed experience: reliable shuttle and good location and value, but marred for some by cleanliness, room-condition, noise incidents and inconsistent front-desk handling.

Un hotel excelente con un buenisimo precio.
Pros:

Excelentes instalaciones, relacion calidad precio, y transporte gratuito del aeropuerto

Cons:

La noche anterior me indicaron por mensaje que el transporte salia del P4 pero en realidad salía del P3. Eso nos hizo perder tiempo en el aeropuerto. Deberian actualizar el mensaje que envían.

Проживание в Нью-Йорке
Pros:

Все было хорошо, номера чистые и ухоженные. Видно, что горничные очень хорошо убирают. Персонал хороший, завтрак великолепный. Хорошее местоположение.

Cons:

Единственно не понравилось следующее: я уже почти неделю, как выехал из номера, то есть закрыл проживание, но мне до сих пор на мою карту не вернули 150 долларов, которые списаны с моей карты в день заселения. Надеюсь на днях мне вернут мои деньги.

The check in staff. Were not as friendly as they were when I stayed there previously.
Pros:

The food and bar area was fantastic and the ppl there were friendly

Cons:

When checking in they gave me a room I didn’t particularly want. Floor 1. They changed my room but the person that served me seemed to have an attitude

I also asked about my points and because I inadvertently booked on booking .com I could not get my points. The other lady tried to help me but was not successful. I don’t understand why I can’t stick get my points. I stayed there !!!

Pros:

Location is good and amenities are overall average

Cons:

The night of our stay Oct 23-24 there was a party in one of the other guests bedrooms. This was reported by multiple people in the hotel as the music was extremely loud. It went on from 10pm onwards. We contacted front desk around 1am and they said they were sending security. The music quieted down but the people kept screaming and doing god knows what until 4am. We heard staff members tell them multiple times to quiet down, however it should have been handled better. It should have been stopped completely

Who gets waken up at 4:00am from your neighbor banging on his door because someone didn’t let him in!
Cons:

False alarm fire drill in the freezing morning possibly about someone smoking in their room.I could smell it in my bathroom!
The hotel did make sure housekeeping sanitize my bathroom.
