Perfect for a quick stop near the airport.

We had a good stay at this hotel. Service was wonderful and the food was very good - fresh and tasty. The room was clean and bed comfortable. Only thing we didn’t like was the shower was in the bedroom with a curtain only to separate and there was no toiletries on arrival. The shuttle service to and from the airport was timely and easy to use. We would stay again.
