The place is nice, clean, and comfortable. The photos look nicer than reality but that doesn’t detract; the service is excellent.

We showed up on August 26 expecting a room, only to find the front doors locked with a padlock. A staff member from a nearby hotel told us the place had been shut for about a week, but we never got any heads‑up. Being left standing at a closed hotel was pretty disappointing.

The hotel’s location is spot‑on if you need to be near the airport, which made the short wait before my flight convenient. Beyond that, there wasn’t much to keep me there longer, so I wouldn’t choose it for an extended stay.

The staff were attentive and friendly, which made the stay pleasant. Everything else ran smoothly, so there really wasn’t any issue to complain about.

We booked the place to escape the festival noise around our home and it delivered – only occasional music and chatter, then quiet at a reasonable hour. Breakfast was a highlight; there was so much good food it felt almost too much. Overall a solid choice for a peaceful night during a busy event.
