"we had a fantastic time in this hotel though we only stay for 3 nights but the experience is great. The location is great and accessible if you want to go town areas located just next to expressway. The reception area ambience is inviting you will get a good vibe the first time you step into their hotel. The rooms are fantastic though at night time if the window is open its a bit noise because of the plane passing through. But the hotel room cleanliness is excellent though a bit small for three...
