Pros:

Cercano al aeropuerto se llega en bus.

Cons:

La puerta corrediza de entrada automática no se habría sola, creo que el recepcionista tiene que abrirla. Deben poner más atención pues tuve que esperar para entrar en un par de ocasiones

Bien para pasar una noche de vuelo de conexión.
Pros:

La cercanía al aeropuerto y el traslado gratuito entre hotel-aeropuerto. El tamaño de la habitación está bien y cuenta con los servicios básicos.

Cons:

La habitación tenía solo un radiador eléctrico para calefaccionarse, que prácticamente no funcionaba. Además, había solo un edredón para taparse en la cama. Pasamos mucho frío durante la noche. La recepción no está en el mismo edificio sino en uno contiguo. La ubicación está muy bien para ir y volver al aeropuerto pero por la zona no hay nada, solo algunos restaurantes de otros hoteles.

Terrible
Pros:

Location was good.

Cons:

No hot water or tea towels in kitchen.
No linen on arrival had to wait hours and only got 2 towels. No bathmat or hand towels. Was told they had run out.
Next day the room didn’t get serviced had to go to motel next door to ask for clean towels. Had to go back that night again and were given just 2 towels. 😡
Had to buy own toilet paper. Was absolutely shocking!! & Aero ain’t even the name of it!!

Not nice , won’t be staying there again
Cons:

I can’t understand why this property isn’t condemned , black mould , paint falling off broken tiles in bathroom , smells , tried to cover with lemon spray , doors don’t slide properly , no hand towel no bath mat and only given 2 towels, looks more like a homeless hotel .booked through booking .com and given discounts but when we arrived to pay the discount wasn’t applied even though it was only a few dollars .
