Nice staff. Very simply appointed hotel. We liked the attached cafe staff, coffees and food. Very young guests staying in the hotel. It was mostly people in their late 20’s maybe some in 30s and airline staff. Don't book room 328 if you go to sleep before 1am. Really loud music blaring from hotel club until then.
