Excellent Airport Proximity

The hotel provided free transport to the airport. I appreciated this service. The room was clean and the bed was comfortable. I could leave my car in the hotel's parking lot . The staff provided assistance with my bags, helpful.

The room was very noisy. The windows did not block sound properly. I could hear every takeoff. This made sleep difficult!
