helpful staffearly check-innarrow toilet
I found the staff friendly and very helpful. They allowed an early check-in! the room was quite convenient for the airport. i liked the short walk to nearby bus stops.
the toilet space was too narrow for me! it felt odd bumping into the wall while sitting down. the shower area felt small too.

The hotel is a short walk to the airport making it easy to catch my flight. I found great parking rates. The room was clean when I arrived.
The bathroom was very small so it was a little difficult to move around.
