Super Lage in der Nähe des Flughafens

Cons:

nichts

Overall it was fab.
Pros:

It was a lovely tranquil setting. Staff were lovely.

Cons:

Nothing but water escaped the shower so the floor got wet. Plus the water was truly scalding at one point.

Okay for 1 night before the airport
Pros:

Staff is awesome, very accommodating. The propert itself is really nice, looks like it was recently remodeled - an oasis in a rough neighborhood. We didn’t get to try the food at the restaurant, but it looked very nice.

Cons:

We were placed in a room facing the road and it was very loud at night (bring earplugs if you’re also a light sleeper!). The pillows were too big and hard for my taste.
