I had a fantastic stay at this hotel! The room was amazing with a comfortable bed, huge bath and shower, and a balcony view that was breathtaking. However, it felt more tailored for a single person rather than for two. The hotel's proximity to the airport terminal was super convenient, but it can be a bit crowded due to its location.
