Close to the airport, with friendly staff at the front counter and the restaurants. The Breakfast and the Dinner buffet offer a wide range of options and choices, the breakfast buffet was included for us, but we also enjoyed the dinner buffet, which offers great value for your money. The room was clean and spacious. We stayed here on two occasions during our trip, and had a great experience both times.
