They are cheating. When I booked this hotel, it is said breakfast included. But there is nothing!!! Chairs in the room is so dirty. There is a hole on the comfort. The rooms are not sound-proof; People at next door play music loudly. The only thing I like is the free parking. You know this is not easy near the airport. But away from this hotel!
