Categories

Cleanliness
6.8
Mixed reports: many guests found rooms clean, but there are notable negative incidents (left-over items, poor room turnover, one guest complained of unclean bathroom and items from previous guest).
Service
7.2
Mixed service: several mentions of friendly, helpful staff and timely airport transfers, but also multiple comments about lack of enthusiasm, unfriendly reception, missing information at arrival and unexpected charges.
Location
9.4
Consistently praised as extremely convenient and very close to the airport; many reviewers highlighted the location as the main advantage.
Room Quality
7
Generally comfortable beds and stylish rooms for the price, but issues include noise from doors/corridor, some worn or hard beds, and at least one major booking/room-type mismatch.
Amenities
8
Good amenities for a quick stay: pool widely praised and transfers often included; however the gym had broken equipment and some limitations (e.g., only one umbrella in a room).
Value for Money
8.2
Many guests called this a great value for an overnight stay by the airport, though a few reported price discrepancies and unexpected extra charges.
Food and Beverage
5.8
Weaker area: breakfast is often noted positively, but several strong negative reports about the restaurant (poor quality, early closing times) and at least one report of food poisoning reduce this score.
Overall Experience
10
Overall very positive for short/overnight stays due to proximity, comfort and value; many guests explicitly recommend it for airport layovers and early flights.

Great hotel close to the airport.
Pros:

We chose this hotel for its proximity to the airport and was pleasantly surprised by how good it was. Fabulous eclectic decor, the room quite comfortable. The bed was enormous and very comfortable. Breakfast was pretty good, but the standout was the staff. They were just delightful. Really recommend this hotel. A real jewel of a find.
