Liked: Staff & service
Definitely an older hotel. The walls are very thin and people were out from midnight to 3am making noise. It is definitely close to the airport though so that was nice and when our transfer didn’t show the morning manager was extremely helpful and accommodating to get a taxi and made it a point to keep checking on us. The woman checking us in was also very sweet. Just very outdated, a sheet was provided but a very thin comforter so I was cold. The area was just ok but walking distance to a few things to eat.
