Very Noisy - Couldn't Sleep

We stayed downstairs in room 110 and we were hoping for a reasonable nights sleep before an early flight. We hardly got any sleep due to the noise in the reception area , a couple of blokes sharing a pizza and the bloke at reception talking loudly until 1am and the bloke at reception did nothing. I had to get half dressed and go out to the reception area to tell them to shut the f..K up the inconsiderate pr.ks. No consideration for guests at all. Not a geat start to a holiday. Very grumpy!

The property was easy to find walking from airport. Breakfast was okay. The only down side was being hurried out the next morning. Not even 10 am at this stage.

It’s an airport hotel with no airport shuttle and the walk to it is looooong. Book another hotel in the area that is a few dollars more with better bigger rooms and pickup / drop off.
