Great place to spend the night after a late night flight arrival. Only complaint was the airport pickup. The reception seemed to have difficulty coordinating this with its taxi driver but they arrived after we waited almost an hour

Basic, older property, but with everything you need. Comfortable bed, nice simple breakfast and a great location close to parks, museums, restaurants, shopping and the airport. As others have mentioned, the pool did not appear very clean so I didn’t go in.

We booked this hotel last minute as our reservation was cancedue to double booking and it turned out to be a blessing in disguise as this hotel even though a bit expensive than other one was far better. Our room was huge. 2 double beds and 1 twin bed. Big almirah and a fridge. No microwave. 24 hour front desk. We only stayed for the night as we had pretty early morning flight. They have free parking but its 5 minutes walk to the parking lot. You could park in front of hotel to load and unload. The lady at front desk was nice. The day we were there, they had a scheduled shuttle at 4am for guests. Not sure if there was extra charge for it or if it even runs every day. We had to leave earlier so we did not used it. Make sure to have bug spray as there were few mosquitoes when lights were on in the room.

Noisy place to stay

We stayed in room 205 in March. The room was clean but extremely noisy. It was due to the fact that there was building construction happening directly across the street starting at 3:30 AM. As well as loud traffic noise resonating until late in the evening. Maybe got 3 hours of sleep...

Good hotel

It’s a good hotel to stay near the airport. Keep in mind that this hotel is very dated and basic but it’s spotless. Service checking in was great, very friendly. The morning crew at breakfast, front desk & staff on were extremely friendly. Greeting you and starting conversations with us. Parking is around the corner on another street but really like a 2 minute walk. It’s in a quiet area on a quiet street so if you go in the evening may seem scary but it’s not.
