My stay at this hotel was decent for a quick overnight before my flight. The room was clean and spacious, but the lighting was pretty dim, making it hard to relax comfortably. The breakfast could have used a little more attention as the staff struggled to keep up with the demand, but overall it served its purpose for a short stay near the airport. I appreciated the shuttle service, but some aspects of the hotel felt outdated.

I had mixed feelings about my stay. Some positives included a clean room and a comfortable bed, but the pool was closed and the breakfast left me guessing about the food quality. The staff was nice and efficient, but overall, it didn't quite meet my expectations due to a few incidents and issues.

My stay at the hotel was quite the mixed bag. I was thrilled to find some cookies and gummy bears waiting for us, which added a nice touch, especially considering the ongoing renovations. However, the construction noise was only slightly bothersome, but I was disappointed that the pool was closed during my visit. Overall, I enjoyed my time here and would consider returning next year to see the finished renovations.
