This place is clean and perfect for a short stay. Was worried about being by the airport because of the constant flight noise but they supply ear plugs but really, once in your room you hardly even hear anything. The pool is nice & even though they had a bar on sight, we didn't have the chance to use it. The staff is very nice and welcoming. Would stay here again.
