Super easy and convenient to get to the airport. For the area it was in between the highway and airport , very little noise made it into in the room.

We stayed here for one short night due to catching an early flight at the airport. It was loud with young travelers shutting doors loudly all night and lights were on in the hallways and shining into the rooms all night. There is no air-con and it was hot and stuffy even with the fan. The twin room is very small. It is only convenient to the airport. Long walks to restaurants and other Coolangatta attractions.

The room I was given did not get dark and the windows don’t fully close. The hall light remained on all night which was very disturbing. Noise levels were lower than expected which was nice.
