The hotel is conveniently located very close to the airport, making it a great choice for travelers looking for easy access. The rooms are modern and spacious, offering a comfortable stay. The service, particularly housekeeping and laundry, is top-notch. However, the dining options, especially when it comes to French pastry, could be more diverse. Overall, a good value for money stay with fantastic service and modern rooms.
