Walking Distance From The Terminals
Guests were happy about being able to walk to the airport terminals from this hotel. Many especially chose to take that approach if they were flying out early the next morning and didn't want to deal with potential transit hassles.
positive:
The Staff Are Kind
Guests reported that the employees were very considerate and did their best to help. Whether the staff members were trying to resolve issues or giving advice about things to do in the area, they were consistently friendly and made guests feel welcome.
positive:
Very Low Rates
Considering that this property is so close to the airport, guests were impressed by the low rates they paid. Many simply wanted a place to sleep before their flights departed, but weren't interested in paying a lot of money. This hotel helped them keep spending levels down.
Negative Reviews
negative:
Loud Climate Control Units
Guests mentioned that whether they were running the heat or air conditioning, the units designed to change the room temperature were so noisy that they were extremely disturbing. Guests commented that in order to sleep peacefully, they had to go without using the heat or air conditioning.
negative:
The Rooms Are Too Compact
Guests thought the rooms were quite small. They commented that the small size was so bothersome that it'd not be advisable to stay at the hotel for more than a night or two. Furthermore, when guests were travelling with suitcases, as was common since this is an airport property, they said the small size was especially apparent.
negative:
No Lift in the Property
Guests complained that there is no lift in the hotel. The absence of that amenity was particularly annoying when guests were trying to carry heavy luggage up several storeys.
