The stay was horrible. First the reservation was not found. Secondly, I got a breakfast buffet rate, but the hotel refused to offer breakfast. The toilet did not flush. The room was horrible.

The hotel was very basic but the staff were friendly and helpful. ##### Chris ### 4/10 Poor #### Verified traveller Jan 12, 2015 Disliked: Property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Not recommended Not a nice hotel at all, very noisy room with a hard bed. ##### Verified traveller ### 2/10 Terrible #### Verified traveller Jan 26, 2013 Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### High price, poor quality Room and bathroom were dirty and shabby. Dinner (room service) was awful. While close to the airport, the surrounding area where hotel located was very unattractive. A highly overpriced hotel.
