Comfortable stay close to the airport
Pros:

The hotel was close to the airport with free airport shuttle. The room was comfortable and it's next door to several restaurants. The gym is a little small but the equipment available is in great condition.

Comfortabel hotel vlakbij het vliegveld
Pros:

Dit hotel is echt vlakbij het vliegveld. Ze hebben ieder uur een shuttle die je in korte tijd naar de terminal brengt. Het inchecken was heel prettig en efficient. Het is een fijn en rustig hotel en de kamers zijn prima met een heel goed bed en alles wat je verder nodig hebt. In het restaurant beneden kun je 's avonds ook goed eten.

Cons:

Het ontbijt was zeer beperkt als je alleen continental nam. De kwaliteit was ook niet om over naar huis te schrijven. Erg jammer, want het avondeten was goed en verder is dit hotel prima en zeer comfortabel.
